friend

by Elizabeth Jill





Your sun pulls the day

out of its sleeve and wraps it

around my shoulders.

Hi Jill. The beauty here is not in the words of this friendship, but meanings. You've seemingly bottled a bit of the rainbow here. Poetically well done.

This is precious and gentle. Brother Sun steps down for a moment to let a Sister speak...

Fresh sharp enchanting, like the smell of a lilly of the valley, simply perfect. Favorite bound.

Hi Elizabeth, Great write. Sometimes we need the warmth from the sun and that xtra little hug, specially when we're blue.

It's lovely to find myself wearing this cloak tighter as it's unveiled in the reading. Congrats on POTD! It's a beautiful haiku on a chilly day, but one I was blessed to share with beloved friends just like this describes.
