Ode To Elspeth for a Summer Birthday


Ode To Elspeth for a Summer Birthday

your most famous
literary representation
is your brave nature
your most remarkable
traits are your talents

for propinquitious jargon
for incendiary word pursuits
for an unending inspiration line
for courageous creative conjuring

your most noted qualities

a fortuitous heart
a tender humanity
a gifted storyteller
a magnificent muse
a faithful friend

your most deserved accolades
cannot even accurately measure

your splendor
your wealth

the essence of your kind being
celebrated by your adoring audience

&

is written in calligraphy
is written in shining stars

for all to witness

every woman
every angel

for the world
for the ages
for the Heavens

forever

**

I am celebrating my fellow creative today (like all days), my dear friend, Elspeth Grafton.  She is a marvel, a writer, a script supervisor, a brave heart and an inspiration to me always.

Happy birthday, friend.

In propinquity,
Nic
