Poetry Contest

This is my bestfriend, and she's an inspiration to me daily, so I wanted to see if she inspired anyone else!

This is Sarah and she's my inspiration, so you can either use her to write a poem, or write one yourself of what inspires you with or without a picture!
Yes, this is a modified response, cause people were less than enthusiastic before, so go for it, and if you don't like the idea, please ignore the competition!
Good luck:)
No rules other than no more than 3 posts per person!

yeah her physical attributes or some element from one of the pictures, any thing that inspires; you're all poets, just go with whatever you want!

Physically she doesn't not give me any inspiration. Why didn't you say she inspires you so who in your life maybe inspires you, you can post a picture of him/her with the poem.

"Sarah"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Something about this face
Always brightens up any place
Radiant because of His Grace
Adorable through all time and space
Honored are my eyes to have had a mere taste

A good friend

A friend whose hands
Will reach out to touch
And wipe tears away
When you are sad

A friend who laughs
With you when you are happy
Of just enjoying life
A friend who just like being with you

A friend of all seasons
Through good and bad
A good friend
I wish I have one too!

Nature is her beauty
The essence of truth lives on her
Skin pure ivory
Beauty fell before my eyes
I wondered who she was this ture elegant girl
Words hung on the tip of my tongue, burning my lips
I wanted to know
Wanted to see
Wanted to feel
What she believed

Strength and honesty showed clearly on her face
Innocence held her in a gentle embrace

Sara.....
