Holly sings when poet rings her rhyme with time and thought and tender care... To Holly! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Thank you for including me in your gallery Sven I don't deserve such a beautiful tribute but thank you from the bottom of my heart~ I truly don't feel worthy of any of the kind remarks here but am touched by the display of friendship in your replies and hearts. Many thanks to all of you~ The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched ---- they must be felt with the heart~ *??* |

Sven~ What talent you display - in displaying the talents of others. *Yeah ... she's okay - as butterflies go ! *wink* On wings of fragility, the strength of her words give her the ability to soar. Muchly loved and admired. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Beautifully written and no better butterfly to write of than our own little butterfly that spreads so much joy and happiness in our lives within the blue pages. It must have taken some time for you to come up with words and put them together without using a single letter not found in "butterflies_dont_cry" and that shows your dedication to making your poems honoring the poets here special. Well done again sir. |

Sven, This one is impressive. I know it was a challenge, but you have done an excellent job with it. ![]() LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

*amy's note-- i've noticed a lot of pain & hurt in our "family" here as late. i am so glad we all can share our feelings in depth and express ourselves to one another. here is just a lil something for every- one here. take care. ~amy~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ some things happen in life and we have no idea why why the winds are forever changing and time just passes by but all happens for a reason God does indeed have a plan and everything that happens fate and destiny do have a hand unbearable pain sometimes occurs and it leaves us alone in tears the inevitable persona of "death" forever leaving us with our fears but sometimes good in life happens and miracles occur and come true and it's those times that we must hold onto allowing the grace of light through life is a ever changing cycle sometimes just don't make no sense at all seems no matter how hard we try we're always hitting another wall but then when you least expect it destiny steps in, and the bad is turned around she never makes much noise comes and goes without making a sound but always know this one thing you can forever bet it's true miracles and dreams do occur how do i know? because i see them in every single one of you... love you all much! ~amy~ |
