The Ladies Of Passions They are the ladies of Passion's poetry Always penning wonders for us to see They share sorrow in their loss of love Bring us rainbows from the stars above Within their words they reveal their souls Teach us how to reach our hidden goals They bring a smile to the face of dispair Always there to listen with hearts of care The replies of support are second to none Brightening the day with warmth of sun Friendships abound in the pages of blue They give their hearts without much adieu I cherish them all each and every one They make sharing poetry so much fun I thank the ladies of Passions once more As I tip my hat to the poets I most adore Mark Bohannan |

Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Mark, I missed this before and I can't imagine why! cause there's so little to respond to here in the open pages let alone the rest.*laughs* But I'm so glad I didn't miss it altogether.

Kethry-LOL........not too much to read huh?????????? Yeah, ain't that (not) the truth. It is getting harder and harder to keep up but I must admit, there is some wonderful poetry flowing through here. Thank you much my friend. Sandra-It is I who thank you and all the ladies here at Passions because all of you make this place so wonderful. Can you imagine if it were just the guys? Thank you again and again and again my friend. Alwye-Once again I thank you for all that you bring to us here and for stopping by. Balladeer-Yes they do deserve it and I do mean it sincerely. Thank you my friend and I know that you cherish them as much as I do and that makes this cowboy smile too. Koko-No we aren't so bad as long as we remember our manners. They are all worth this and much more praise and I know it won't be long before you find that out if you haven't already. Thank you kindly. |
