Truly, truly am I blessed. So now a prayer of thankfulness. Wondrous love in plentitude, I think it's time for gratitude... "Tie a string around your toe, lest you float away!" Advice that soothed me as aloe. Sharon? I send my love your way. And a childhood fantasy came true via Janet Marie. A twin in her, as she is me. Janet? Butterflies are free. And yes you ARE a butterfly! I'm honored you're a friend of mine. My doreen, is such a dream she cracks me up--she makes me scream. Her words outpour tell EVERYTHING-- her thoughts, my heart in flow of stream. Marge is the echo of my heart. Methinks she knows my every thought. Never has she missed a beat and sweetly wiped tears from my cheek. Nan is there to take my hand. I was surprised to find her there. I thought of her as distant queen, yet she's constant breath of air. Luscious, lovely, sweet Maree, always has been there for me, and Kamla is my sanity... like feeling ground beneath my feet. Karilea's lovely name sang to me a sweet refrain She see things in different light-- truly she is sun's shine bright. Mrs. Santos is gift divine. Ambrosia is the best describe. I gobble up her every rhyme and every poem? A sublime dine. Martie, be another gift... her words are as the sands in shift. Her pen, like mine, writes ink of blood-- she writes with wisdom from above. Mysteria, is ME again... made me believe I can be friends... with inner spirit that I war a lesson of what life is FOR. Alicia is a whisper's shout. Her talent sparks my inner doubts. I read the words she blithely pens and swear I'll never write again. Temptress, she amazes me how can soft intensely be? And after reading angrybraids, I swear I'll never see the same. Sandra croons the saddest tunes-- I fear she feels the pain, like me... catalinamoon--ARISE-- and cast your glory on the sea... Sea, is sparkling full of hope, and constant with the pull of tide-- each wave another splash of brave in salt of all the tears she's cried. Regina, Krista, Honeybee... each one of you a part of me. Greeneyes gaze delicately. Kit has generosity. She sees more clearly than me. A lonely wolf made friends with me. She frightened me. I thought me, MEAL. But as the lion's paw with thorn, We found solace in forlorn. Paula, my sweet lovely friend... Happiness should do her in! Patience in humanity-- I'm glad she waited up for me. Elizabeth did strike a chord... harmonies of inner core I know the pain was ill afford, but thank you so...my Miss Corr! The face that launched a thousand ships... Helen, gives men dreams of kiss. How I miss my meadowmuse, and fyre of sky sings perfect tune. Devina? I can "lean on her"-- a mischief, sweet--a kitten's purr. Irie be an "imp"--like me- she is bells upon my feet. Enchantress is a spell uncast, as sister of the future's past. suthern knows my ways of south-- she forgives my wayward mouth! Nic, she made me hug myself. Her kindness made me forget hell. Keth is "solid"--just like me? a sister of serenity. Titia gave to me a lamb, and the warmth of friendship's hand. Midnitesun's sincerity is proof that love can set you free. Maureen with grace of dancer's stance, each word heard just screams romance, and if your name is not found here, know that in my heart you're near. Each face of Goddess does reside and all of you be Passion's pride. |

I'm honored to still be a apart of this work, Ser. Miss our chats, Lady. *sigh* Think of me now and then.  I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |

k...surprised and honored to be in the club and I am just a stroke away… no matter what the sheriff’s menu of me plays has me up and working nights but for a writing vampire…seems just right a shift that hold me 12 hours but come to visit when I can to pick perfect word flowers and I think these petals are quite tender and my lunch is almost over so back to work I surrender [This message has been edited by 1slick_lady (07-04-2002 12:46 AM).] |

Hey ladies...just my way of a "toast" to you, and there are so many others, I have yet to mention--please know just because the name is not there, doesn't mean it is not engraved on my heart! and Dunc and eric? I'm thinking on that poem--I had to do this little celebration thing today--which is still in progress--tsk to me for being rude...I'll be back...packing verses! thanks again, to all. |

serenity, I loved the poem and the tribute - but when you said "solid" you didn't mean "fat" did you? I am but I don't like people to notice. Or did you mean solid as in "thick as a brick" for I am that too but I try to hide it. lol Thanks for including me I loved it all including the description of me. I'm a solid citizen.  Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

 EEK! You mean I am a witch? Nah! You are to darn sweet and if you meant I was a witch you meant I was a sweet witch like you. You dear friend are a jewel in my friendship crown that shines ever so bright and BABY, have you come a long way! The war I think is over, tend to those flowers and marigolds of yours and watch that beautiful smile shine forth like I am smiling now. I feel honored, thank you.Nothing means more to me than faith, |

if you could come here and say this quote: to me in person... (which, btw, you are unconditionally invited with or without a sock), then i'd probably have to look up at you with awe and somehow demonstrate the tightness we share just so we could feel the dichotomy or harpo and lucy who were there... hehe but hey, by the way... could you call me today or tomorrow? is there anything i could say to make the story cause a ring of a connection to reverberate? what part of this is early? what part is late? do you think i'm flirting with you? would you like me to continue? take off your sock and send it to me. i might consider this possibility but i must adjust with the fluffling up of leaves me alone to the tonic in the glass the sound of a metronome can cast a vision of shadow on the lawn. there is nothing about you which will ever make me yawn! no boredom here, my frend, but if you'd like we could take a hike to the shenendoah for an explore of the countryside and you might just like it and what's more than that, you might even fight for a vantage point from the corner. mourners have their histroy. could be her or her or me, what a pain to cry!! kiss me quick! i see your eye directly in the vantage point of mine and you are beautiful and gracious!! whaddya mean i'm blind! that's hellacious! i see you so clear my soul might just be lucidly, intrucively stating that i wish you had no fear because it's rather stupid to do so let's go! i found the sock. sit up front with me.

i would never toy with you and i was a collector's item!~ remember??? and what's this license thingy yer talkin about? reminds me of my business.. on again off again and all that i had to pay outa my teeth for a friggin pieceah somethin printed on to hangupon my walls but my walls were erected and all that and anyway, i tried, really really hard.... really!! and so what you're saying here is you have a possiblility to tell my man to own me again in my past and control my very breathing?? if you tell him this, i'll kill ya miss so called sereneOne... .. he is amused by the fact that i'm so calm given the volumes read and whatever..... the only chains i'll accept are built by Long Fence.... a really great metaphorical name for a company if you think about it... no wonder they are successful~~~~ !!! it's all poetry, after all.... all of it... breathe in....... (ok go ahead and breathe out if you want, and go to sleep ok? hehe.. don't you HATE that when somebody tells you it's time for bed or go to sleep?!!!! hahahaha... it's a major pet peeve of mine"... how far are you? where is the show? i'll fine it...
