As a poet I'm prolific an Asimov of metered verse oh wait there's Marge she's just terrific and of course Prometheus Mmoonchild known as Maureen makes me softly sigh, with verse of astounding beauty that almost makes me cry Hardrock emotions plunder at bequest of life's travail, a seaman showing wonder, that makes me gasp and wail Isis goddess of morning writes song of faith, good cheer but I return for laughter to naughty Balladeer Sudhir, Sudhir, beloved one I love to sing your praise your Haiku and metered song comforts me most days Nikolette called Sadness wrenches my heart so while Brian writes a fearful tale leaves, chills that just won't go When I'm feeling pensive Spitfire comes to rouse with poems of great courage the best in Passion's house, new to me is Sunny1, I think we could be friends I relate to her verse that leaves me breathless in the end The Lil-one and Elmo Virgin, JamieLee, Bluebird I 'specially want them to know their pain is clearly heard Then there's Mark who writes so well and challenges my mind everywhere I look, I new friends at Passion's find I'm maybe not prolific,  at Passion's place I've learned you give one iota of yourself it's thousand-fold returned. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Thank you Sudhir, It's always a pleasure to read and respond to your work. I fairly new here so it's nice to see a name I recognise. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Kethry, You are so right, you do truly get back a thousand fold in return. Passions has been at times for me a bridge over troubled waters. In times of distress, you need only to open the Passions forum to find frienship and support, and a lot of great poetry. This is a fine tribute to the poets at Passions Liz |

Thank you Liz, After reading your locust poem tonight. I'm wondering where I can fit you into the mix. Be well Kethry. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Cerenity - you honor me with praise. Ladysixstring - if cleverness isn;t a word it should be let's make it one now. Sunny1 - friends it is. I'm looking up your email address as I write.

Paula - thanks for the bump and the kind words. Dawn - always lovely to hear from you, thanks. Thank you Wayoutwalt. I haven't seen any of your work, though I know you're not new being a senior member and all, which forum do you post at. CocBaci - Thanks, I also view about eleven although it probably some ungodly hour in your part of the world. It seems when I post the clock tells me it's four in the morning of the day before or something like that. Oh2beme. Thank you. The line about naughty balldeer slipped out before I could stop them then they refused to leave the page. What can you do? Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
