Ode to Philippa Gregory

Ode to Philippa Gregory
© 4-26-09 ARC -

My lust for reading began at tender young age.
Everything devoured that came my way.
Discrimination cultivated Young Adult Years.
Church/park/library favorite haven pilgrim sage.

Historical drama eclipsed all paradigms.
Favorites: Caldwell, Jennings, West, Michener.
Eclectic spanned classics to modern fame.
Cultivated minor talent in rhythm rhymes.

Several contemporary authors challenged/stimulated:
J.K. Rawings, Mistry, Wroblewski, W. Young, C. McCarthy.
But Philippa Gregory pinnacled/transcended most of all.
Every work of art educating, riveting, weighted.

Each one historical, sociological, psychological in depth.
Wonderment even encompassed finance applicable today.
Hear ye, hear ye - alert to peers throughout above and beyond.
Kudos Philippa Gregory for wisdom, empathy, enjoyment, breath.
