You think that what it stands for really comes as no surprise... A subject without fortitude, or message, or disguise... To other folks, un-poet-like, it just means having fun... But to a Passion Poet, ~~R~n~R~~ is number one... ~~R~n~R~~ is quite addictive, like a legal, potent high... It can bring you up or down, Then make you laugh, or make you cry... At times it's perfect therapy, At times it's quite a game... The cause is changing constantly, Effects can be insane... No matter what you're searching for the answer can be found... In words that flow at varied speed, like geisers from the ground... You take it in--awash your soul, Through weary, bleary eyes... Then spit out all the unused parts your brain just can't surmise... In case I haven't made my thoughts ridiculously clear... There really is some meaning to what I've been writing here... The first ~~R~~ stands for reading... All these words are for your eyes... But the second ~~R~~, (That which I crave) Stands for your great replies!!!! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Taking time to read the words written between each taut line Taking time to wipe some tears with kind words that warm like wine Taking time to find a phrase or to pen one of our own Taking time to cheer a heart and to make them feel at home Some T's n T's to join your RnR Lovely sentiments you have expressed S1 Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Sunny thank you, R 'n' R obviously stands for rise and respect. So a standing ovation, or a quick rendition of thank you very much for the poets and phrases.  |

Hi Sunny, What a perfect way of putting words to a thank you for a reply. I sometimes wonder how you just keep writing one after the other, and they are all great! |
