A Mystery

Passionate poets are so cheerful and nice
They give me excellent poetic advice
They help me to weather bad times I go through
And start out my day with a mind fresh and new

The passionate forums are a great learning tool
It's like going to a Passionate Poets School
You can learn about sonnets and free verse techniques
Or get yourself Booged with a critics critique

Passionate poets are always in sight
They sit at their monitors all day and night
I’m thankful for all of the time they are giving
But how in the heck do they make a living?

A great poem and a question almost as large as the meaning of life

 May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out.

Irish proverb.

I sit in front of my monitor much more then I should, maybe that's why I am so poor.  Great poem Liz to a great bunch of people.

Hey!  I'm really not that bad!!!  Thank you for a wonderful tribute to all the great people here.  Hey, do you want something from us, or are you just a nice person?  You say nice things too often, but thanks anyways!  Hey, do you do individuals??? LOL!
