For Shannon

Pen up a poem to Shannon
Some wee warm words how I feel
Reverence every effervescence
SweeTart zest of citrus peel

Write a song for Shannon
Shake up a tonic for itching ears
Isn't this the whole wide world enthralled?
Listen for her joys and fears

Tell a tale of Shannon
Cast her in a movie with Sharif
Green splattered Eden yonder hill & vale
A heart's been stolen and she the thief

Write the book called Shannon
To reduce to words should be my curse
Fair Shannon speaks to my bumbling best
She wraps herself inside her verse.
