Response to Passions' Poetic Pieces I am not a proclaimed mathematician and even in words I sometimes fail but I cannot help but exclaim at the adulation I see before me prevail! For in this hallowed hall of sanctum and in the light of all revelry responses average 9.6731101 to every poem set before you and me. Now, some poetic pieces get more than they deserve [ping pong poetry comes to mind, you see] but that our poets are in kind less reserved… they give praise to good works, to you and me! So this is Sunshine’s way of thanks to all of Passions’ fine poets of pen and ink not only do you give us much food for thought… why, you even make us think! 5 June 2000 ©KRJ Sunshine ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.

DearSunshine, I'm wowed by the statistical proof of our common observation and appreciation for the Passions site. This is one great place and I personally don't think that we can sing it's praises too much. For all that we might perceive as it's weakness-- the postives and pluses make them pale into insignificance. Yes, yes, Passions IS the best!!! I'm glad we can sing a duet of praise and appreciation today, David |

my dishes dont get washed, my laundry dont get done but I could care less I'm in Passions having fun I do so love to read poetry and to reply to lots of posts its my way to show my love of verse its my way to poetically honor and toast But most of all... I love the chance to rhyme and if I come up missing... you can find me in Passions 99.9% of the time ---- great poem SUN...creative and fun.. yes this place is special later 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~ |

I am with you all the way on this one Sunshine. It is great to be able to escape life at the end of the day and loss yourself in wonderful poetry and a friendly atmosphere. a lovely poem. ------------------------ "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" "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. |
