Janet...Sister of my heart She has shared my sorrows deep Knows the reasons I withhold And has felt the tears I weep She has come to lift me high Has offered a ray of light She's made it "ok" to cry As I feel her words at night Golden smiles to me she brings A laugh or a tear to share A hug of an Angel Wing A soul friend like her.... so rare I have been so blessed to find Someone true of heart to call Someone that can read my mind Like it's writing on the wall My thanks are not near enough But it will be just the start Oh...if she is blushing...tough Oh Sweet sister of my heart!! Janet, all of your poems have spoken like an echo of my soul, and your display of a poem and request of prayers for Shane has been the most beautiful gift... as are you. Thank you from the depths of my soul that you seem to know so well. **Angel Wing Hugs and Butterfly Kisses** Chance made us Friends but our pasts have made us sisters....of the heart and soul. < !signature--> Hold me for yesterday Kiss me for tomorrow But love me for today.

A lovely way to express the wonder of having another soul understand one's own, freeing both to grieve, and to heal. ...Living is ever like crossing rivers; finding a new life on each shore ... RJG |

SHE IS INDEED...DEEPLY TOUCHED... Butterfly...I was just about to sign off for the nite...something said go check out passions one last time...I guess I heard butterfly wings calling me (smile) I AM blushing,and smiling from ear to ear, and crying all at the same time...thank you for this...if you knew what it means to me to have the gift of a poem...in my world...there is no more treasured gift. To have you (or anyone) feel a connection to me thru my poetry, is a humbling compliment. I always thought my words only made sense to me.(smile)This is the TRUE gift of here...the healing that comes from our realizing we are not alone in our pain,losses, or our failures, and that others do understand...and also finding friends to celebrate the successes as well. I am deeply touched by this... I thank you from my heart. This place and all its poets is born of magic and is so special, as are you. thank you for making me feel special and appreciated. I feel the same way about you...and all here who touch my heart daily with your words, friendship, and grace. take care, love ya "soul sis" Janet Marie |

CLM* Thank you I'm touched by your comments.

Thank you so much for your comments they truly mean alot. Marge*...OHHHHHHHH you are so sweet!!!! I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!! Janet* I'm so glad you liked it and understood (of course...lol) the sentiment that it was written with. Happy tears?? No way....when was the last time?? LOL Hallmark just didn't have the words I was looking for...lol Hey don't I get a free card now?? You are the best...thanks for being there!! Hold me for yesterday Kiss me for tomorrow But love me for today. |
