In memory of Marge Tindal, a Poet who've touched the hearts of so many poets on these pages blue. For those who are not familiar with Marge's love for full moons, take a look at our Moon Lady's Moon Poems. This book I made in memory of a great friend and Poet. In Loving Memory - Marge Tindal Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

You have done a wonderful job here, dear Titia, four our beloved Marge, who has gone too soon ... She will be delighted to see your moon-shaped poem and she will feel our love and appreciation for her poetry. Yes you are so right: she has a place within our hearts that will never fade away. Love, Margherita |

She left her footprints in everyone's heart that is for sure. Every time I see a full moon I do think of her. Lovely Titia. |

Marge touched so many of us in so many ways. I vividly recall her poems of Indian heritage and wild flowers in the Tehachapis just upon the mention of her name. She was a beautiful person as well as poet. She is missed. Michael |

It's beautiful, Titia. What a gift you've given my mom, to continue her memory and your friendship. And what a gift you've given to us, her family, by letting us know we're not alone in our grief, and that other people miss her and appreciate her too, and right here on these pages she loved so dearly. I can see her and Muys up in the moonlight guiding your hand as you wrote this poem. Much love foreverly, Tracie |

This is such a lovely tribute to Marge in both form and words, Titia. It is hard to believe how much time has gone by, and yet, it feels like yesterday as I see her favorite shape and your beautiful thoughts written within. Very much enjoyed this. Best wishes, /Kit |

Wow! So long and yet wasn't it just yesterday when last I met her in these pages? I know my heart thinks so, though reality tells me otherwise . . . A very special soul was she, for sure. I'll always treasure the years I shared with her. j. |

a lovely tribute to a grand-fine author and human being. Marge was the person who initially convinced me to walk these fine blue sand of 'P.I.P.-land' by the cyber-sea and called me "Soqwu Disgitisdi Gvdi" (He who 'weaves dreams') and wrote me a poem with that title. |

Such a lovely tribute, Titia. It's hard to believe that it's been 5 years already. I feel privileged to be able to remember her. I think she took us all under her wing as it were and I for one am grateful for that. My best to you, Titia. Helen |

This is a lovely tribute, Titia. Even as you have lost your own mom more recently, you take time to bring Marge's memory back to us with such a wonderful poem. We miss them both very much. Thank you, Titia. |

Titia, this is a beautiful remembrance of a very brilliant, witty woman. I don't think a night goes by that if and when I see the moon in its' full glory, that I don't think of our Marge. You are a treasure, m'dear! |

Her body, unfortunately, had the same delicacy as her poetry and spirit. No one who knew her will ever forget her. |
