"A dream is a wish your heart makes..."

Hi Marsha,
and I agree with all of the above that this is truly beautiful, and a tribute that will be cherished by the lady.  I've missed you, too, and now we are in the same neck of the woods, so watch out, MM!!!!!  

...you are me, I am you, we are one...

Enchantress thank you so much, actually the praise goes to Kari for telling me to post again.       If I hadn’t popped in to pick something up from my files I wouldn’t have stopped by the forum, and since I was on site I had to stop by to read her, the result was this poem. You all deserve better of course.

Kari darling sister of my soul, thank you, I didn’t think you’d miss me so much darling, I speak to you so often. Okay I don’t post poems but that is no hardship, you surely haven’t missed anything. I’m too happy to write much.       as you also know       I know you’d get sick to death of me singing constantly, you know I can’t carry a tune in a bucket. And you just wait darling YOUR poem is splendiferous. But oh how hard I’ve worked, are you worth the effort???? Mmmmmm yes of course, you know you are. But I warn you I expect a least a round of applause and a long letter. (you have to sing for your supper darling girl       ) I wouldn’t object to a few back flips and a small parade if you like. I tell you it’s wondrous. Hehehehehe Aren’t I modest? Well, I have much to be modest about

CoCo darling girl and I’ve missed you, I know, I know, I could have come in just to read and I have done, ask Kari she’ll tell you, or ask Paula. Truly though darling girl I have missed my dearest friends here. But most of them know where I am and I do send emails out all the time. Thank you muchly, I’m glad you like it, and it applies to your work most definitely. Your writing is better than ever.

Circe darling girl, ((((hugs))))) Thank you, you are always so incredibly sweet to me, now who’s turned mushy Hmmmmmmmm? You definitely fall into the excellent writers’ section and as for my dearest friends most certainly. This definitely is for you darling girl, your words are as wonderful as you are.  
I know I should have returned before, I will, I promise I will, I’ll come in more often, but truthfully I am far too happy to write much these days. I tend to sing a lot, out of key mainly, but who cares.

[center]Why Can’t I Write?

Why can’t I write, Oh why won’t my words flow?
I think it’s because I’m really in love you know
My heart isn’t aching, and I don’t feel any fear
He holds my so tenderly he always wants me near
There’s no worry that he’s going to leave me alone
When he says he’ll call me I reach for the phone
I can’t write of heartbreaks or of souls that cry
I can only sit beside him and quite contentedly sigh

Why can’t I scribble why won’t the words return?
I wonder if they feel that I have nothing left to learn
My soul is soaring so high and so very far these days
That whatever is left inside is lost in love’s haze
I float along my feet don’t touch the ground at all
I’m flying around the sky and I don’t fear that I’ll fall
I can’t write of hearts that asks for love repeatedly
I’m beloved by my love he enthrals me so completely

Why can’t I compose, why won’t the words run?
Perhaps it’s that I’m bathed in his bright shining sun
My spirit leaps and dances it’s not sad or blue
I’m living on a cloud and it’s so wonderful too
I can’t write the words that expose a souls pain
I doubt sincerely that I will ever feel that way again
My heart isn’t crying it is singing with such delight
I’m cherished and adored I’m filled with his light


Marsha

See what I mean I can’t write…………………

You know just how much I love you, and as for missing you I don’t since you so kindly send me some of your best work. Okay all your poems are splendid, any I miss I pick up in my library.

It was Margie who taught me how to do this

AD dear heart you are toooo toooo kind, your writing continues to improve in leaps and bounds. Mine has sort of gone to pot. Ask Keth she’ll tell you, no you’d better not she’d lie through her teeth you know. This was just a little scribble, you know how I hate anything resembling hard work. Thank you anyway love it is appreciated, even if it’s not warranted. (the praise I mean)

Keth darling sister of my heart and saviour of my soul, Oh so you’re here are you? (tsk, I suppose you think I should say thank you nicely?) But darling girl I’ve said thank you nicely, Oh it wasn’t to you, no that’s true. Maybe I ought to in truth tell anyone who actually believes that we are being wicked to each other. Oh okay that I’m wicked to you and you just steal my words. Now don’t deny it darling you know it’s true. (Ha hoist with your own petard darling) Now get out of that one darling girl. Anyway maybe I should tell them it’s all nonsense and you adore me. (Okay and I love you too, tsk as if they need to know that, ‘tis obvious, isn’t it?) Now go get back to work and stop loitering around this site in case there’s any spare going. (Words darling I meant spare words, what else would I mean?) I don’t know you have no faith in me at all,     trust me, I said I’d be good, and you know I am, always       …….. or nearly always

‘Deer dear heart, thank you muchly. You are the engine of Passions, and you don’t really need this little minor cog. But thank you for missing me, I will be back more I promise. Although I think I’ll confine myself to reading more than I write. I have been about I’ve just been more of a silent onlooker. Actually I spent a lot more time in the archives. The pace of life there is easier on a woman of my age Kid.     Hehehehehehe okay I’m lying it wasn’t so much the pace of the place it was the hard work of keeping up with the pages they moved so fast. I know you get used to it.       Besides I always pop in for the good stuff, and if you send me a note to tell me you have a poem you can call me back as quick as a

Startime dear heart thank you so very much, I only wrote a few words, they should if they were representative of the population of Passions be etched in gold. I did my humble best. They aren’t good enough but my heart and love goes out with them.
