                        Margie Daze

Misty memories stirred within me
Artistically painted pictures I see
Rhyme is her gift her poetic boon
Gloriously she portrays the moon
Effortlessly she calls forth my soul

To heal me and make me whole
In her words I’ve bathed my eyes
Never fails with a magic surprise
Dances of delight her words bring
Allowing the spirit to lift and sing
Let this message be my small gift to you in my thanks of your help
                                                 Hearing my plaintive pleading yelp
                                                 Absolutely tireless has your  work been
                                                 Not resting a moment steadfast and unseen
                                                 Keeping me on track supporting me

                                                 You always the find the spark in me
                                                 Out in the wide world there is fear
                                                 Unaware am I not, but it’s not here

Fortunately I came in Passions door
Otherwise bereft I’d be evermore
Rising through the pain I felt within

Easy it wasn’t but you help me begin
Vales of sorrow and rivers of my tears
Everything seemed to worsen my fears
Right there at the start you took my hand
You called me to join Passions merry band
Touched me with your tremendous heart
Hearing my voice showed me where to start
I can’t imagine my life without this place
No I can it would be one endless race
Girl thank you is all I had to say

Margie girl all I ask is that you don’t ever go away


                                                  Marsha

i dont mean to reply out of Margie's absence, but just bump this back to the top so she may read it.. She seems to be such a wonderful person, from what I've read of hers.. she should read this...

Love is God. Love is war. Love is what your life is for.

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.

Hi you all today I'm going for the brief but heartfelt thank you one and all.
Margie girl deserve it, and even if I was to spend all my time turning out thank yous they still wouldn't cover my appreciation of her.
Thank you everyone

Take care love as always
Mushy




Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same
