Somewhere, someone loves me. Someone thinks I'm great - Gee Whiz! I can't begin to tell you Just how wonderful that is! Someone out there takes the time To tell me "I love you." Somewhere, someone loves me... What a special thing to do! Somewhere, someone holds me In extremely high regard. What have I done to merit Such a wonderful reward? Someone takes the time to look At things that most don't see. Somewhere, someone loves me... How that means the world to me! My life's gone by unnoticed, Just a small face in the crowd And when I speak my mind, it doesn't Come out very loud. I stand - but, even when I do, It doesn't make me tall And no one ever makes me think I matter much at all. But someone, somewhere loves me. What a glorious surprise That someone thinks that I am Very special in their eyes. It only takes a single voice To start my life anew... Somewhere, someone loves me... Hey, there! Someone! I love you!!!! |

It is very easy for me to believe that someone loves you. I am so glad that you have that someone special. I don't know you personally but I have met your HEART in your poems. |

I got a chain letter in my email once. Actually, I got it in all four of my email boxes. It was one of those continuing poem-like things that everyone was supposed to add to. The line was "Somewhere, someone..." and you were supposed to fill in the blank. That was one of the most touching chainletters I've ever seen. Some of the things that the someone's somewhere did, said, thought, touched, etc were very very sweet and sad and happy and everything! And this poem reminded me of that. |

'deer: it's not me...I don't love you..oh no!!! ~pause~ Ok, so I lied... You know that there is a 'deer devotee in a corner of the Sth pacific right? (And really - we do have some of the nicest golf courses ok so I expect to see you out here on them one day...preferably having arrived by jet... ) Hugs on the fine sentiments...

I can't even begin to say how much I loved this Michael! What a wonderful flow, and such sweet and endearing sentiments. Funny how we don't know how much we can touch someone from a'far ... and yet, somehow, somewhere if we're really lucky, we do. You've done this so many times for me, I do hope you know it's returned, you are special. Love ya, /Kit |

All right... I admit it... I luv ya too.... But I'm NOT standing in any line... unless of course it's very warm where ever that line is... and I can cut to be up in the front... and of course you'll have to give up that silly "fore" game you play... and I'll be needing a new mercedes... and I like gold jewelry and expensive perfume... and I surely do hope you can cook..... |

oh yeah??? well, WHO IS IT?? that's what i'd like to know!!! geesh (lol at nan... "fore"play indeed ) but about the poem... Goshogollygeewillikers... it's so somewhere else! er ... i mean you're something else! umm.. er... i mean, you're somewhere else! hehe *wink* didn't someone recently say something about st-st-st-uddering? oh never mind... all i can say is, that's easy for YOU to say but as for me, i'd have a hard time putting something like this in words because nobody would believe me anyway *g ((((((hug)))))))) and besides that.... - all you can ever really ask out of life is a sincere apology and some decent poetry - |

very magical in your rhyme, I sure that love surrounds your mind, when someone shows such love and passion, there's no doubt someone loves you! |

Needing to re-emphasize this thought today~ 'Just a small face in the crowd And when I speak my mind, it doesn't Come out very loud.' I find these words circling ... circling ... circling this day~ Thank you, Balladeer~ I'm sooooo thankful for the archives of many treasures~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*No matter what I search for ... |

Someone whispered in my ear, that they thought they loved our Deer! I can't remember now just who, but thought I should tell this to you. Back to the top, martyjo |
