I hope you like it love, and that it makes you smile An Ode To SEA There's a friend of mine she's so good and nice She's an enchantress mixing words with spice Very good at writing of the sea and it's flow Magic she weaves of a heart and it's inner glow There are those who think she could be Circe That enchantress of Homers who had no mercy She turned Odysseus men into wretched swine And made the poor fool for his homeland pine She's not at all as wicked, as Circe is our SEA No she's very sweet, well at least she is to me We laugh at the same kind of jokes and things Our SEA has a very special song that she sings It tells of her never-ending eternal sacred quest Of her shining soul and of whom she loves best Her words ripple and flow with a fluid soft wave All her poems I mark as something special to save As for temper, yes my friend SEA she has got one But mostly I've only ever seen in her sparkly fun She's always laughing, bright and so very funny And she's told everyone that I'm as soft as a bunny Not that I mind being called Ms Mushy Marsha It's cute being likened to an emotional sticky plaster Still my sweet friend who's known to all as SEA I've re-christened her to that michievous witch Circe Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 11-08-2000).] |

Circe, I'm so pleased, you could say I'm cock a hoop. Well I did promise, now if anyone wants to do an ode to Mushy Marsha, don't hold back. Be good Mushy Jwesley, I expect you're safe from her turning you into a pig, well as long as you don't cross her. Okay what are grits, surely you don't mean gravel. Because that sounds a very strange taste. Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

I'm bumping this back to the front, because Circe deserves that everyone should See Why SEA Has become Circe and why not Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Marsha, a beautiful poem for the lovely PoetLadySea, and I too have grown fond of her style of verse she expresses on screen. It's so sweet to read how this framework of Poets has formed such treasured friendships. Coco |

CoCo, she is isn't she, wonderful poet, charming company, and she understands my strange sense of humour. Thanks for reading, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed writing this one, and I think it came through. Mark my friend, thank you, and am I thankful Circe didn't have a name that didn't rhyme, because then I'd have been really stuck. Thankfully since I'm a simple soul she does, phew what a relief. Glad you liked it. Maybe I ought to set a challenge to make a poem out of my whole name, no I'd better not, it would gone on forever. I'm happy with the ones I've got, more than happy, Kethry did one for me too. Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Circe, I'm glad this brought a smile or two, Which of course is what it was meant to do I checked out the legend of that witch Circe And Sea she was a stunner who didn't need mercy Her hair was very wild and her eyes were vivid Still with those pigs about she may have been livid She seems to have been used to getting her own way Nothing really like you I think I would truly say But I'm pleased to give you a glowing reference For Circe's company Mushy has a certain preference. Glad you like it love Mushy Ethome, thank you very much, I'm pleased you like it, I do appreciate it, truly.
