H alloween has passed and days are short'ning
A ll the more reason to tell you one thing
P erhaps not new, but it comes from my heart
P oets of Passions deserve the greatest award
Y ou'll get it from me friends, for just being there

T he Poets of Passions, they've so much to share
H ow lucky I was when I came to New 'Poets' Richie
A nd found out there was no one who made me ichie
N o one told me to get lost, because I talked 'funny'
K issed and hugged I was and they called me 'hunney'
S o much humor and laughs I find on these pages blue
G rinning for hours after reading poems written by you
I n dept I am for not being able to answer them all
V illanelles and Sestina's, in Nan's class we have a ball
I ntegrity, serenity, respect for our fellow member
N ever will I forget those beautiful days in September
G od knows how I love you, you became part of me

T hanksgiving is near and I'll tell you where I'll be
O n the meadow green with sheep named after you

Y elling 'Hey Balladeer, Happy Thanksgiving to you too
O r, 'Vicky, Marge, Sunshine come, let me hug you my sweet
U nder a sky full of stars I will be thankful indeed

A day to remember that only one man started all this
L et me thank you dear Ron, but your own poetry I miss
L et me hug you my friends, one by one, with a kiss


Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Do you suppose Ron will take time to share hands with us, and bless us with one of his own?  Now THERE's a Thanksgiving prayer come true!  Thank you Titia!

Titia darling heart I miss you so much, you know where I am for most of my time, but when I’m sent a link I try to get in even if I don’t always reply. Time is too too short, but if I had more time…….. aaahhh but we can’t slow time’s pace can we? If I could have I would have stretched September to last a long long time. You are a wonderful friend and I thank you for this golden nugget of warmth. Take care darling one I’ll be back here all too soon I fear...  


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

Hi Titia...actually you don't talk funny.
You have a beautiful accent and  never were you misunderstood.

I have a great picture of you in your red outfit, hat and all that I will be sending your way soon...
Thank you for such thoughtful words...
hugsss

I second what Maureen said, Titia...
I think your accent is charming and you are very well understood!
Here's hoping that you and your lovely family have a wonderful Thanksgiving and that your mother comes home from the hospital feeling just great....
~ lots of chipmunk hugs and kisses and Thanksgiving wishes
