The years have all been kind to you my friend
It seems you've haven't aged one little bit
From all those nights of talking without end
To Passion's poets on the internet

You've kindly shown us all a thing or two
About, as Sharon says, "the da dum" thing
And most of us have none to thank but you
For teaching us to make our rhythms sing

And I, for one, have had the priveledge
To know the you outside these pages blue
To walk with you along the ocean's edge
To see the love in everything you do

So on this day I celebrate your birth
And wonder, "Do you really know your worth?"

This is wonderful, Ruth.   Nan will love it.

Happy Birthday, Nan!

Hugs to you both,

If she doesn't, perhaps she will with this?
Lovely, Hoot.
Its good to see you here.

You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL

Ruth...Nan is Priceless....
Unfortunately, she's always behind
the curtain, and doesn't share enough
of her talent with us....
she needs to repost some favorites
just so the new folks can share
in what us "old folks" know....

Thank you so much for finding the time
to come grace us with your hugs....

and Nan?  She's Still beaming!!!
