You have made this place A place where we can express The the feelings of the heart A place of the highest respect Where emotions can run wild Where love knows no bounds A place to fill our hunger To speak and be heard Our longings are filled Lives changed in the passing moments A place we can be with people like us People that understand us When we can go nowhere else We can always come here To find compassion and companionship You have made us family By your guidelines and ideals You have given that to us And I for one Would like to thank you Thank you Ron This is my tribute to Ron. From what I have read he is the creator of this fine establishment. And I for one am grateful. P.S. I am not sure if this is the proper forum to post it in, but here it is. If it needs to be moved please do so. "Life's greatest mystery isn't the meaning of life. To love and be loved is the meaning of life. Now how to attain those is the greatest mystery of all." |

Howdy Scorched Dragon! Yep, Ron it was who created this wonderful place...and to think that it all started from a personal web-page. This is a wonderful and fitting tribute to the man who has put so much love, money, body and soul into making what Passions in Poetry is today. I thank you for taking the time to let him know. Glad to see you here, and I do hope to see you around the forums. Alicat, the persnikitty As I sit here dimly thinking Watching modem lights a-blinking Churning out poetic hash. Lord, in all Your piety, Help me keep my sanity: Please don't let the modem crash! --Alicat |

I don't think there will ever be enough tributes for the Webmaster himself, so back to the TOP! Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Very well said, SD!! This is a wonderful tribute to the one who started it all!! Thank You Ron!!
