After reading Sunshine's duet and her comments about the memories of the past in these pages blue I wanted to resurrect this poem I wrote about one of the most inspiring women I had the privilege to get to know amongst the blue pages - I hope you enjoy! ~Cherokee Angel~ She has a burning Yearning spiritual desire Burns deep inside Like flames of fire ~~~ A spiritual desire That yearns to be free To fly beyond rainbows Of native Cherokee ~~~ Her spirits arise Her wings are formed She's Cherokee angel Most adored ~~~ Wings spread out Far beyond her native land To gently touch With guided hand ~~~ Cherokee angel I hear you far and beyond Forest floor Cherokee angel Guide us forever more ~~~ In loving memory of one of the most missed people of the pages blue of the past our beautiful Marge Tindal. Marge always had encouragement, praise and friendly replies all the while inspiring others and myself here at passions and she will always be missed. ~HUGs~ Tracie xxx Love is the life of the soul... |

I didn't know her, Tracie, but now I do through your words. Excellent! ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

thanks Jerry~ If you have the time search for her under her name, her poetry was very inspirational, she had a love of the moon and a passion for her Cherokee heritage, she was also a very encouraging woman and someone that I miss here very much. She left a big hole! Love is the life of the soul... |

GRAND that you re-posted this 'write' ... Marge was the one who convinced me to 'walk' these fine blue sands of 'P.I.P.-land' by the cyber-sea in the first place (back in 2006)! |

A lovely tribute to a lovely person. I can't think about Marge without recalling a poem she wrote called "When Warrior's Weep." A poem that moved me dearly. Her heritage was as beautiful to witness in her work, as this is in tribute. Michael |
