Carlyn's Poem (1976 Chapbook) (Density ****) Poem by Bill Grace

'Seven Golden Daffodils' came to me
And peace to try at poetry
'Seven Golden Daffodils' touched my days
A life reshaping in new ways.

Orange sun and frosted mount
Emerald isles in silver laced seas
White sloop from fable named Halcyone.

Wine that caught the fire's glow
Enchanting melodies from silver strings
Golden flames - cracked sparks to fling.

Faces that returned a smile
Friendship warming as a child
Flying feet on oaken floors
All of this and even more.
