[IMG]  [/IMG]THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN A COUPLE OF YEARS BEFORE MY FATHER DIED AND IT IS A PICTURE I'LL ALWAYS TREASURE * * * * * I thought I'd show you a picture So that all of you could see How proud I am of my father For he meant the world to me This is the man I write of Who remains within my heart I've told you so much about him And of the love he did impart A man of few words So very gentle and kind He kept much to himself A nicer man you could not find I may never have been a writer If it wasn't for my Dad My words seem to have no ending This is not some passing fad Through the words that I write He will live on in me I see him in the sun And the moon and the sea Suetang [This message has been edited by Suetang (06-13-2002 06:21 PM).] |

A beautiful poem, Sue...but your photo disappeared. I think you can fix it if you go back and edit it. You also need a place to store your photos so that they won't disappear. Sharon (Mysteria) knows all about that stuff... Please email her. I would love to see a picture of your Dad.  ~ many hugsLyra |

Lyra Thanks for telling me but I don't know how to fix it. It's strange because when I went in just then to read your comment the picture is there so I am not sure what happened. Take care....Sue Suetang |

For some reason, I can't see the picture, Sue...maybe its my server. Could you email it to me and then I will be able to see what the subject of your lovely poem looks like. ~ smiling hugsLyra |

Sue, I am not the picture expert....But there are others who are... I cannot see it as well....All I get is a little white rectangle with a red x in the middle... A lovely write, and I am sure will be a very lovely picture of a proud Dad.... |

Sue, I tried to "fix" it but for some reason it keeps backtracking and I could not help you edit this... but I think I'll follow the link, just to see your Dad... the poem is wonderful! |

Sue if the picture is on your computer, we wont be able to see it, it is also missing the " " at both the beginning and the end of of the code, I think thats correct, feel free anyone to correct me if am wrong..... I dont know much about UBB codes, I think they run the same as IMG SRC codes??? < img src=" http://www.whateverhere.jpeg "> you would need to remove the space after SRC and after jpeg to make it work.....make sense??? ~~~ I love the poem, it is very touching, and does indeed paint a beautiful picture..... Be well....Peace thank you for sharing this treasure... Lauren~ Its been a long road Getting from there to here Ive known a wind so cold, seen the darkest days but now the winds I feel are only winds of change [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (06-13-2002 11:56 AM).] |
