Elaine

No, it's not narcissism. Not really. The poem below was actually written by my indubitably talented poet/songwriter friend Sheila, or Sheilalou as I call her. I'm a big fan of her works and I've been bugging her for the longest time about making a poem for me. She finally completed it yesterday afternoon, and I'm so in love with it I'm posting it here. :)

She sees the world in a different light 
And appreciates the simple joys of life
She travels to different worlds through books
But battles with trials with optimism and prayer.

She’s a girl of few words
But with a heart of gold
She’s passive at times
she’s our wonderwall.

She’s a ball of inspiration
A warrior with a heart
A dreamer with so much passion 
A friend who listens and understands.

Elaine you’re a strong being
Elaine, you’re a beautiful and brave soul
You’re in love with life, you’re a ray of light.
You’re stronger than caffeine
You’re a picture of happiness
You’re a real person
And for the record, you’re [more] infectious than I am. 


Not all people can say their friend wrote them a poem. Thank you Sheilalou, for making me feel so special. <3
