~*She writes, with soul
Extra-ordinary visions
Realism and strength found
Encompassing dreams
Naturally namable
Intellect of spirit and heart
Treasured poet,
YOU are a gem!*~

it's made me who I am...

Beautiful acrostic Donna...
She will love this..
It is so much like her!

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

Oh lady...shaking my head.

The power of our words and the power of love--

do you know I woke up so tired and stiff and just downright MEAN today?

And then I come here and find this gift from you.

You just melted the witch.

Thank you. (and trust me--grin--my family thanks you)

So sweet of you.

Now--I'm ready to go to work!

(Watch me make a muscle?)

nod. wince. OW.

What a lovely gift.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Donna,
Kindness at its finest! A gem from one gem to another gem.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Thank you all for helping me pay tribute to a wonderful lady.

K?  Melt the witch?  I didn't think you could melt the GOOD witch? I am glad that it did make the witch smile though and soothed the family somewhat  LOL....(but I just Can't picture you being mean at all..)  Ok, ok, if making the muscle hurts don't do it. I don't believe I need to see your muscle to see the strength that lies within your soul.
Oh yes! The power of love and of our words and in a world of cyberspace where we can not offer much, isn't it nice to know that we can offer those little things that truly mean so very much?  
The thanks goes to you Seren, for allowing all of us to share your words, your love,
and YOU!  

It's better than I could have planned..
it's made me who I am...
