Mrs. Dorsey Mrs. Dorsey Sat alone. had no one to call her own. Valentine’s came and went And there was never one who sent Her a flower or a card A kiss of love or a regard. Not a blush of red Came her way In a velvet rose Or a mixed bouquet. Mrs. Dorsey Sat alone- Had no one to call her own. Barb Gedman |

Barb: I'm afraid there are a lot of "Mrs. Dorseys" in our world. This is a poignant poem. Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Barb Loneliness is a killer. How we can change a persons life just by reaching out and caring. A sad poem but so true. Love Isobel |

Barb~ quote: Now doesn't this just make you smile with realize of how important it is to pay-it-forward? I go to the area nursing centers/retirement homes and not only read poetry to the residents ... but gather little tidbits of information about them and at the next gathering ... I read a poem I've written about one of them and they are quick to let me know that they recognize themselves in my poetry~ Gives ME more pleasure to see those smiling faces~  Thank you for sharing this special moment~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |

 (big angel hugs) Oh Barbara, I still haven't had a Valentine yet so I can understand how it feels to some extent, though no woman should ever be alone and I send angel hugs out to all who need love! (sigh) I always go to the Catholic Community Center once in a while to talk and help out residents there, God Bless You, we all must reach out to the community, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barbara, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
