After ten years here I've left my mark, I've published my books and I've cast the dark. Lately it's just not in me to write, lost my direction when I gained my sight. And after ten years of friends to be had, not being here much makes me sad. I just seem to be caught up in the days- I'm hoping summer is only a phase. Right now it's warm and time is full of things in my garden I'm having to pull and sunflowers that call me out to play a creek that says "come here in me lay" and my lil handful who's my best friend, the energy in him will never end I'm grateful for these ten years, and maybe ten more- but summer's got me forgetting the door. Thanks for ten years of many roads crossed, but right now I'm enjoying me lost, but know I'll be back come the frost. |

Upon the frost comes the wilting of the spring of revival. Your words carry heartbeats that write the emotional currents of a poet blessed. |

Dixie, congratulations on your ten years, your books, and your green thumb! That is one heckuvvalotta garden!!! I love this 'Nature'al side of you! ~ and I'm a tad envious of your wide-open spaces! Stand proud, bold, and beautiful like that magnificent sunflower! Giving you a big hug and a broad smile, Linda |

Dixie. My dear lady we'll let you take a short break from PIP but don't forget those that love and care for you. You might be able to take the girl from PIP but will never take PIP out of the girl...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |
