She Carpes Every Diem

Mysteria, mysterious, a friend in poetry
She’s the rhythm of the blueness in Passion’s open sea
She Carpes every Diem, every moment that she lives
And we savor and we cherish all the offerings she gives

What would be this place without Mysteria’s special touch
We simply wouldn’t be likely to Carpe near as much
And poorer would our hearts be without words to start each day
As she evokes a smile before she sends us on our way

And laugher, hearty laughter just to hear her tell a tale
Sometimes when seas are still, she is a poet’s billowed sail
As for me, I love her dearly, and with her I must confess
Each Diem has been Carped to it’s fullest and its best

Love you, darlin'
Liz

Dear Liz, I totally concur with you! The Mysterious One, does ~ and is ~ all that, and more!

May she (and you!) forever "Seize the Day!".

This was cute, clever, ~ and accurate!

Love & Hugs to each of you!

Indeed - There's never a single dull moment with Sharon about.  She fills every one with laughter.

Here's to you, Sharon - and thanks to Lizzy for taking the time to write this tribute!

Wonderful Liz!  She Carpe's those Diem's beautifully doesn't she?  I loved this Liz.  

Lucky are we, to know the amazing woman that Sharon truly is. She is much loved by this heart as well.  

Best wishes and big hugs,

My best memory of us Liz was when we had our girls sleep-over.  There we were, sitting in pjs on your bed watching "Witness," and laughing our heads off about me thinking the Amish workhorses I saw that day were small Clydesdale - remember?

I still think the lady that you are looks absolutely stunning in jeans and a baseball cap, yes I do.

Brother did I carpe by diems today, so much so I am thinking of hitting the hay early.  I don't know what I was thinking.  I went to a Boot Camp in 84 degree weather to try it out.  I must have been the only antique there but I did learn the instructor clearly does not watch her group.  I was sitting waiting for them to finish - I don't care to "glow."  Nope, no glowing for moi!  They can have it!

Love you lady.  Thank you for the poem and soon - yes, we must carpe our diems soon.

You mean you were relaxing in the shadows? Naaaaa ...

Ladies you are top class!

Love,

I just thought I would tell you - never, ever register for an outdoor boot-camp, even for seniors.  Liz, we are just too dang old now to do this stuff, and it can leave you darn near paralyzed.  I think I will stick to lifting up my fork.   Luv ya!
