Moth Missing  Moth missing. She will fly in the archives If a light appears. Reading her Reminds me of my Bare feet in wet sand. Pebbles dare not touch Any spaces in my thirsty soul. The words I miss? When she turns a cheek, Her earth laughter. The tears at the centre of her soul She drizzles on a mind’s parched soil. That familiar cool zephyr she releases That appears in pirouette Releasing pulverized grains of thought That sift through my empty mind. Yes, and,those Whirling fireflies, Each kited with silver thread Sent to tickle my mind. You are missed Moth. ~*~ Carpe'Diem Janet Marie has been very busy with family issues, but she is sure not forgotten. I found this art, and it had to be dedicated to her. A link to some great poetry for the newcomers if I may? JANET MARIE |

Sharon, a lovely dedication to our Janet Marie. Oh how I miss reading her too! Mayhaps this heartfelt write and beautiful artwork will lure her toward these pages blue.  Now - while the leaves still dance on the wind |

I've had some recent conversations with our Moth Queen, and by far she deserves the accolades you've given her; she is a poet that has scaled lines that we only wish we could achieve; but your poem, and honor, Sharon, does her a supreme justice. Thank you for sharing her so very well.  |

Jan has, and now I will also take this opportunity to thank you humbly for your nice comments. Life just goes on, and sometimes it is away from here for longer periods of time than we imagined. I hope that our new members get into the archives and read some really good poetry that is there. Thanks again. |

Sharon...I really miss her too....who else could see into a rainbow and turn a butterfly free? I know her eye is still beyond what others see wherever she may be. Thank you for this lovely tribute. |

A nice honor write for the moth queen, who is still at the top of my list of truly outstanding word artists. I miss her photos too! A beautiful line sharon: "Each kited with silver thread Sent to tickle my mind." |

Fitting tribute. I have been lurking and too notice her absence. I was just reading her "Ask the Stars" last night and loving it again. Her mothy soul has a way of lifting ours even in her absense. Come home soon Janet Marie! Sherry |

Thanks everyone, I am sure she has popped in to see the wonderful words left for her, but life has a way of making us sometimes take a different path unfortunately. Carpe' Diem |
