This Pen Of Yours by SilverButterfly at All poetry

this pen of yours

anointed with love

tells Matthew's story

and the mother he loved

this pen of yours

so used and worn

speaks of a heart

broken and torn

this pen of yours

will heal many hearts

because of your loss

you wrote from the start

so don't think for a moment

you haven't touched us

for when you write from your heart

we cherish this pen of yours

Oh Wow Thank You
What a beautiful poem. The title is beautiful to me, This Pen Of Yours. Well I guess you could say I have been writing from the start of the loss of my Matt. My one prayer would be that someone who is hurting like me and one of my poems they will find some comfort in knowing they are not alone in those feelings. I feel so blessed by this beautiful poem, thank you for your encouragement and saying that I have touched some hearts and that you have cherished my pen. This means a lot to me for I'm not quite sure I'm to good of a poet but I am trying to process through in my attempts to write poetry. Thanks to you dear friend and others that have come along side of me this year I don't know that I would have made it this far. It still is so hard and painful. Thank you for blessing me today and entering my one year on AP contest and the best to you in the contest.
Wishing You Many Blessings
Much Love
Kelle Marie
