I'm not afraid of flying
I've done that many times
But what I am afraid of
is quoting my own rhymes

Writing English is one thing
But speaking is another
So if you really hate it
Just say: Titia, don't bother

You know I am just teasing you
I speak a perfect English tongue
At least that is what I think
But maybe I have it all so wrong

I have to extend my departure
for I won't leave in middle of fun
It was set for the twenty nineth
But I'll stay one day more in the Sun

I'm counting the weeks already
It'll be seven weeks to go for me
Can't tell you folks how thrilled I am
To see the sea at Nan's place you see

Then when I leave Washington DC
I'll railway the mountains to the South
Then I'll be boat fishing along the coast
Oh my, water drips me around the mouth

Marsha dear, just close your eyes
and let the angels take you
You'll be fine my dear, I'm sure
Just think of my arms around you

Marge my friend and great Poetess
I'll hug you till you say "let go"
And Balladeer my bestest pal
It's my knuffelsack you want, I know

Sweet Keth and Marsha cooked up some fun
On the last weekend I'll be there
I've searched, no better friends I've found
Then in this circle of passion we share


Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Ha ROFLMAO Marge, I ain't speaking 'English' English, never been to England. I speak more like a mix of Montreal/Washington/Toronto slang, cause that's where I lived long time ago, mixed with some Dutch pronounciation and guestures of hand and feet, you won't have any trouble to understand what I'm saying LOL.

Yea will try to get a plane to Detroit on the 30st for I don't want to leave before the treasurehunt ya know.

Smartchick, I sure wish you could be there too sweet lady. When I hit the jackpot sometime I'll fly over to visit you.
HUGS to you.

Neeraja, I can imagine it's hard, not to be able to see the man you love in person. Just keep hoping, there may be a solution some day.

Cooee Titia,
I can't wait either.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Tita darling heart FABULOUS WE ARE ALL GOING TO FLORIDA yippee

sung to the tune of ‘We’re having a heat wave

We’re having a party
A poetical party
There’ll be poems galore
We’ll ask ‘Deer for some more
He certainly can
Can

It is going to be sooooo much fun, I’m counting the days 59 days to go.

I love this poem, and I’m glad you’re staying an extra day, superb, but you’ll have to look really hard for that treasure. Keth is hiding it and you know she’s brilliant at hiding things, look how she hides her light under a bushel all the time.

As for the plane I shall take a few Valium, wake briefly when we change at Pittsburgh, then sleep until we land at Tampa. I only hope it won’t be like landing at Gatwick, because I can never find a trolley and its always my case the last one to appear.


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

You promised me a knuffel, girl
So don't forget the sack.
Pass them out to all
But save the best
For Michael Mack!!!

But what I am afraid of
is quoting my own rhymes

I'm afraid to even read mine silently. LOL This is great, Titia... hope you can get the flight changes you need! *S*

Hey Titia...
You are going to have an unbelievably great time...
I am praying that I am well enough to go too!
Please pray with me because I really really want to go...
I have convinced myself that I will be okay...now I just hope that my body will obey.
~ hope to meet you hugs
