Each of these famous Helens here

A life important and so full 

But Helen that we all hold dear

 Must surely have the kindest soul 



She’ll post a poem, including prayer

And tells us why they are in need 

Encouraging others to care

That’s how our Helen plants a seed



She grew up in Hawaii state

Her major in college, Russian 

Computing job when graduate

Taught English second language, then



Two daughters and her special Hon

They're from the US western coast

Two granddaughters and one grandson

A grandma with just the right boast



 We know her heart, and not her face

And see where her compassion lives

But most here in our worldwide space

We feel the love she always gives



Her interviews with such rapport

And for her monthly birthday prose

For Helen who we're thankful for

Respect and friendship grows and grows



Your sweet demeanor lights the way

You're best of the Helen bouquet

Patch even joined us here to say

Hope yours was a Happy Birthday

These tribute poems are written in appreciation to friends who have been kind enough to frequently review me, even though I cannot always review back as much as I would like. For eyes and health reasons my screen time is limited, and this is my way of saying thank you.
