TO LESLIE


Welcome far away friend
You've came into my Home on tip-toe,
discreetly.
Your words were not sounds, but bright letters,
And yet a thin line of communications
has been opened between us.
A delightful little creature is born
After our silent talk
She is called Poetry.
She now toddles and smiles
searching around bright colors.
The sounds, the beauty,
the colors are her nourishment.
It doesn't matter how far we are,
The poetry will manage to join us
Like a baby looking out with bright eyes.
