Antonia !!
Hello. A smile.
Welcome. Please do
pause a while,
and sit and rest
and talk of things.
From outside
a bird, it sings,
as it splashes
joyfully.
Bird bath fun
for all to see
from Antonia's
warm heart.
Appreciation.
Just the start.
Would you like
a drink my dear ??
A glass of water ??
Never fear,
the milk is fresh
for tea as well,
or coffee if
you like the smell.
And in the garden
flowers smile
at Antonia's
sweet style.
A jungle now
of coloured blooms.
A contrast to
those dusty rooms
so full of books
and files of stuff;
the creaking floor
cries out enough.
Again outside
there is a trace
of Antonia.
Her grace
reflected in
each petal, bright.
Most every flower
touched. Their light
reflected in
that cheerful smile.
No wonder that
we pause a while
in her presence,
with a grin....
Feel that special
warmth within,
and watch the Full Moon
in the sky
as the phone rings
twice....a sigh.
Then a laugh....
such wicked fun !!
Antonia.
She's Number One !!
