I knew someone once upon a time
Who knew how to weave incredible rhyme.
He'd sit at the keyboard deep in thought,
Waiting for insight, which is what he got.

He'd write a whole piece in five minutes flat
With perfect meter and such;
But one day, I strongly felt that
This time he'd written too much.

He was trying to write for everyone's sake
A happier day for Passions to make,
And every Corner Pubber be
Covered in this dragon's spree.

I'm not too sure if he's as bright
As some make him out to be,
But one thing's for sure, all day and night
He's been a good friend to me.

One day I was going to visit his place
And see what he was doing,
He'd been sick and pale in the face
And he was not improving...

He'd been like that for a couple of days
But still he would not be stopped,
And rest from his writing in all of his ways--
He'd have written 'til he dropped!

He was able to take the dullish lead
That was his rough design,
Then transform to gold, and read
While he replied, benign.

Right now Sam Reinsford isn't feeling
Very well, not nearly,
And he's surely not concealing
That he misses you all dearly.

I really hope he gets better soon.
Get Well, Sam!


Your friend

Alchemist, thou hast truely spoken,
About our dear Spryo friend,
I would like to add my token,
My greetings to him also send.

Spyro, when I posted my first,
Your welcome encouraged me more,
Your praise almost made me burst,
You were so kind saying, ENCORE, ENCORE!

I hear you are not feel well,
I want you to know I care,
Without you here, a void would swell,
So I'll keep you in my prayers.

Thank you Alchemist for letting us know about our Special Dragon friend Spyro!

Tell Sam we miss him. He is such an integral part of the Passions Forum and the Pub especially! I hope he's feeling better soon.

What a special friend you are to think of Sam in his time of ailment, and to let us all know. Thanks for your kindness, and welcome to Passions. Please give Sam my wishes for a quick recovery

And thank you all for keeping Sam in your minds, hearts, and prayers...he's doing a little better, but still not too well--he had to go to the hospital for a short time, and the past seven days have kind of been hectic for him, but I'm going to print this out and show our little dragon your replies.

Again, thank you so much, everyone.
