Your finely crafted verses play a tune And splash across the canvas of my mind A picturesque fair wood or sandy dune I’ve seen the world through phrases you’ve designed. Your pen has caused my tears to freely flow Cascading falls from sorrows that you share And wisdom gleaned, on me, you do bestow You gift my soul because you truly care. A healing balm I’ve found in clever wit My burdened heart set free once more to fly Aloft again in ever graceful flit Your gentle words, the breeze that lifts me high. A symphony you softly play for me Upon the page when you write poetry. (This is dedicated to all the poets and readers of Passions in Poetry, for making this the best place I have ever found, with a special note of thanks to Ron for making this all possible!) Denise |

Oh thank you too dsynder. Yor are excellent poet and a beautiful woman. The other day, I printed out all my poem and responses on the computer and realized that you responded to my work than anbody else and I'm very grateful of that. In fact you was there for me when my first poem was showcased on this board. I used to be dissapointed when I had so few posts but your name was always among those posts and I thank you. One day, I might dedicate a poem to you and your wonderful poems. Nathan |

I too appreciate the many times you have read and commented on my poetry. You open friendship's door so easily and reply with care and style and your own poetry is inspiring. Congratulations! In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Lady D... An excellent post for #5000 or for any number in fact. Thanks for heaping a fair share upon my own posts. Always a joy to see your name and always a pleasure to read. To 10K and beyond. (and me yet to break a thousand... ) |

Denise, Denise! What can a poet say You've been a friend to all in every way You are the guardian angel of the forum Looking down on each and every poem 5000 posts is proof of what I say An angel truly is what you portray Irish eyes of blue are filled with love And write the wondrous sonnet shown above Congratulations, Denise! Love you, Liz |

Very beautiful! Congrats on your 5000th, denise! We're all very blessed to have you here! *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |

Thank you all so much for your warm, kind comments! It is a pleasure knowing each and every one of you. I feel as though we have been friends forever. I can't believe I only found Passions less than 5 months ago. You are all very special to me. My life would be the poorer without you. Write on Poets! Read on Readers! Long Live Passions! p.s. Thank you for the lovely poem, Elizabeth! Denise |

Congratulations on number 5K. I've enjoyed your posts. It's fantasy. But if it contains a piece of me doesn't that make it as real as I am? |
