Blessed Sheriff

: : : : : : : : : : : : A billion poems would get blessed When one voice gets employed That softly cooed, then passed each test, Such that it gets enjoyed, Beyond the essence of each line And theme of each new verse, Pure sentiments thus to define, Emotions to disperse. A billion poems could get blessed Through that one voice I heard, Which made more than my heart impressed, Once admiration stirred, Such that I welcomed her soft tones, Each pause of silence, too, Her subtleties like twilight zones, Her mellowed points of view. A billion poems should get blessed. I'm hoping some are mine, Three thousand poems, then the rest, As that would be just fine! Through this one voice of excellence, Through this one voice sublime! Thanks to her spoken eloquence, Time after time after time! Denis Martindale. February 2021. This poem celebrates the Poemhunter voice-of-choice, Blessed Sheriff. She has recited many famous poems on the Poemhunter website. The first time I heard her voice, I checked on Google, and that's why I wanted to express how wonderful Blessed Sheriff is. Live long and prosper, as they say, live long and prosper.
