Listening to every heart

1299

With baited breath, I watch a bit
For Number 1300 quick to hit;
I had anticipated 1300 by 9/30/99,
But alas, no one new came by to rhyme.

For I’ve been watching since September 1
To see how many would learn and come
To see what Passions is all about
‘tis much more fun than fishing trout!

So to Ron and all friends here
Still I think we’ve much to cheer,
For almost 300 this month swelled our forces strong
And I, for one, am glad to belong!

1 October, 1999

It's amazing how this forum is growing with leaps and bounds. It breaths and has a life of it's own now

It is better to be silent and be considered a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.

Yup... Whoever said poetry is dead hasn't visited here. *G* If Ron's dedicated server doesn't solve the problems, he'll be opening up a new open every couple of weeks! *G*

Can you all believe, an average of ten folks a day? And poetry is dead? NOT!

Thanks, Hoot, suthern & 'Deer, for reading.

Missed this one when it was new, to think a month has passed and I think we gained another 300. It will be interesting to see how many members we have on New Years Day.
