THANK YOU, MY FRIEND
25 May 2011

You bless me
in my silver moonflight
and my cat-comfort
and my dog-happiness
and my horse-gallops
and the me I breathe;

and now I nest alone
in fire-bliss
and free-winged leaps
with shadowed memories of
how we danced high, high
above tree-top sighs,
surrounded by our friends, the stars
who revelled in our joy

and I bless you
from the nucleus of my soul
for meandering my heart ways;
and for writing my spirit on yours;
and for opening your garden gate
for me, and for leaning over it,
so that we could linger longer
and share for a few more moments
the sweet, sweet nectar
of our flower days
and fireplace nights;
and for your quiver-kindness
that you thought
was slow-curtained
even from me,
but touched my bone marrow
in skin-tip soul shimmers;
and for singing my freedom
that bonds me closer;
and for how your toes tell you
that my heart-valves
will recall your touch
as we dance
the rest of our respective days
and in the hereafter;
and for sanctifying
our new comforting distant-friendship.

You write with every little miniscule tiny piece of your heart. You leave nothing out. I love you for that.

I send hugs and more hugs.

Hi Diana, I hope everything is okay with you. I am sorry I can't respond to e-mails just now because someting is wrong with my computer.
I am hoping to get it fixed this weekend.
I am sending you a big hug. I wish I could deliver it in person. If you need to talk. I am always here.
Love, Ida

Don't know if they're any words I could add that hasn't already been said by those above...
so let's just say "I agree with them all" and
then read it again.

Thank you, my dear friend, Alison.  Your beautiful response is very touching and so very, very  appreciated.  Hugs back.

Thank you, my dear friend, Ida.  Thanks for your kindness and loving support.  I am absolutely fine.  I just needed a hug and hey presto! I got it!  Smiles.  The meaning behind a gift is so much more important than the gift itself – in fact it is everything – so your cyberhug is just as good as the real deal!  Thank you.  Hugs back.

Thank you, Ice, for your very kind touching words.  They are much appreciated.

Jimmy, there are words you could have added – and you did!  Thanks and smiles.

Thank you, easy1. My perspicacity enriches me almost every minute of every day – and yes, I was very blessed to have shared what I did with whom I did. It was very special. Thank you for your kind words.

Sorry, Faith and callalily I missed your responses.

Thank you, Faith, for your kind heart-words, Faith.

Thank you, callalily, for your beautiful words. I am glad that I brought back those bitter-sweet memories, hopefully more sweet than bitter.

Thank you, Marcia for your heart-warming reply. Well, it is friendship now, but it was more before.
