Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is portraits of women.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A name poem for a shy, memorable woman known by few:
Samantha is a lover of the mist:
An exotic orchid seen by very few.
Most stray along a path, content to view
A narrow swath of the glories that exist.
No one who sees Samantha soon forgets
The quiet dreaming of her careful words,
Her iconoclastic thoughts, like small, bright birds
Alight on thick, dark tangles of regrets.
