Let your face be a canvas
An ever-rising star
Radiant!
Make a bold statement
In black & white
You are unique
Born to express yourself
Trust in every new tomorrow
Discover the secret of Love
It’s your time to smile
Say goodbye & live well
A dream come true
I had to create something special for the final Music with Marian challenge in the Imaginary Garden. Thus I set upon an old magazine to find a poem amid the words.
Marian and I go back to before the inception of Real Toads. We met by total accident, or fate.. bumped into one another on the blogs and stuck together through thick and thin. Her blog runaway sentence is one of the first I discovered, when I was entirely new to the forum of online poetry publishing. It has remained true to Marian's vision and her writing is a constant source of inspiration to me personally, as well as to countless poets and fellow toads.
Thank you so much, sister-poet, for all and everything you are.
