I follow the Instagram account of artist Iz Horgan. She posted this on her link and I filled out the form about an object I’d lost in the late eighties. I wrote and asked for permission to post about her project and she graciously agreed.
And then in my snail mail box I received a personal poem on a postcard in response to my describing my lost object -a gold necklace with a band of tiny pearls holding the two ropes strands together
What a day brightener. Thank you Iz for your thoughtful response and your beautiful art postcard.
How special. Thanks for sharing.
It was lovely to receive. Thank you Darlene
Very touching!
Wow! What a thoughtful artist and thought filled project
a chain of gold and tiny pearls
once danced above her breasts
when first received they brought a tear
after, always a gentle smile
as the ups and downs of life occurred
the necklace was there to see
though gone now, whereabouts unknown
the memories still dance

Beautiful. I love how the post sparked your writing ❤️
Such a wonderful idea, and an amazing poem. I’ll have to submit a request for one! If I get one back I will let you know.
I’ll be eager to hear.
