There are many great poets at Passions,
Who write poems in various fashions,
Some tell of their dreams,
Some draw us moon beams,
Kind words they never do ration.

Their hearts are right on the screen,
The most beautiful words I have seen,
The pictures they pen,
Go on without end,
Like a meadow of daisies, pristine.

I've been 'round the world in their poems,
As I've read about fairies and gnomes,
I've gone back to the past,
With their memories that last,
And seen gardens surrounding their homes.

They've written of love and of loss,
And of trouble they've had with their boss,
They have written of space,
And they've written with grace,
And at times the old gauntlet is tossed.

I have learned so much since the start,
From the knowledge that their words impart,
I've got a long ways to go,
There's still much I don't know,
For their help I say thanks, from the heart.

Bonnie~

I don't do limericks well
As I'm sure this post will tell
But I know that I smile
when after a while
I see you do them just swell !

*Girl ... these are NOT easy to do ...
and you just did a WONDERFUL job on them.
So delightfully YOU !

WOW! Bonnie, this is a masterpiece! When did you learn this? It's so beautifully written. I'm awstruck. Will you talents never cease to surprise? I hope not. Love, Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Bonnie I think this is more than fantastic
Actually the poem is way too majestic
Your words always give me a delighted smile
And make me think for a lot of while
I assure you this smile on my face isn't plastic.

regards,
sudhir

Bonnie,

Once again your talents astound,
Your words so generous, abound,
The Pub is so blest,
I have to confess,
To have your rich talent around!

NICE!

Its obvious from reading your verse
Your computer is really a curse
But we're all the same
We'll be playing this game
Till they drag us all off in a hearse



To poets Heaven and beyond

Must say I was certainly impressed
Each stanza was beautifully dressed
By the words that you chose
Whether rhyming or prose
You limericked, with an A+, passed the test!!!

~~soft smiles, Bonnie

YOu certainly did pass the test
And your limerick is absolute best
But with others around
The limericks will bound
And we'll all reply for the rest


great limerick Bonnie!

stay cool
