One of my best friends from my days living in China surprised me this weekend and found me at the market. I screamed with delight! She and her husband have always been huge supporters of my poetry (and my life in general) so it was an absolute please to write a poem for her and her daughter. 

 

The Page women are sages, women for the ages, never found in cages

or in rages    (maybe sometimes…..!)                living full life in all its stages

women of God                     mother and daughter but sisters in Christ

pure of heart               starting and finishing

and everything in between

seen to be

together

forever entwined            arm in arm

charming           divine

the Page women are

for each other

and love

love for the ages

love uncaged

Andrea and Mahlia
