I heard about a wonderful place Filled with sweet poetic grace So much amazing talent here Motivation to strive for a higher gear Everyone offers their encouragement And whenever needed support is lent I have found some special friends Who will stick with me to the end Glad I worked up the courage to post These words are my innermost They came straight from the heart Always have right from the start 1000 posts so hard to believe This is one place that I won't leave I love to write too much By you all I have been touched Thank you to all other poets You've helped and I hope you know it I will strive to do my best And overcome life's little tests Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

LW So glad you joined Passions too. And you said it all my friend. This is a wonderful place filled with much love, understanding, and respect. I am so glad I joined too. I feel like I have found my own little haven away from the everyday stress of life. Take care. amy  "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

This is certainly a haven of poets, you said it perfectly. beautiful poem for an equally beautiful place. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity" Nicky Wire, A design for Life. manic street preachers "Rock 'n' roll is our epiphany Culture, alienation, boredom and despair" |

CONGRATS ON A 1000 LW!!! PERFECT POEM TO HONOR THIS GREAT PLACE OF POETS!! IM SO GLAD YOUR ONE OF THEM.  LATER WOLF-GATOR JM I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - that I know too much I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling ... If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something me... In everything in you. ~MB20~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |

Yes indeed!, such a wonderful place. Filled with so many talented writers, of which you are certainly one. I'm glad you will be staying around for another 1000 posts. < !signature-->God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown [This message has been edited by EagleOne (edited 06-04-2000).] |
