Painting pictures with words.
Opening a part of the soul.
Emotion flowing with the lines.
Tapestry skillfully woven.
Reflecting thoughts artfully.
Yearning to make a difference.

Special Feature Collaborative Poem—By ayaz daryl nielsen and Peggy Dugan French—United States
among the roses
By ayaz daryl nielsen and Peggy Dugan French
the ecstasy of butterflies
as they dance between the flowers
warm summer sun across their wings
so gracefully they waltz among the roses
aflutter with the grace of the infinite
touching our souls with their elegant charm
Hello Peggy and Ayaz, I am always delighted when you jointly write. With a light touch, you have created a memorable image in such few lines. Thank you and best wishes Annie
I hope we continue to read more poetry from this dynamic duo who seem so in touch with each other that their poetry melds into one voice...a solidarity of rich talent. Thank you Anne for your kind comments.
