And Soon (An explaination of sorts to some of my friends) I know you've wondered what's become of me Truth to tell I'm been a little bit off colour you see My joi de viere has taken a bus out of heart's town And my smile is wearing a faded and patched gown I used to visit very frequently this haven of the good Leaving my message of love's light whenever I could But I'm not beaten down yet I can still see the light And soon I shall leave this vale of eternal dark night I know you newbies have asked puzzeled who's she? Truth to tell I was once a close member of this family My voice could be heard echoing in accents quite clear Calling out to banish and repel the darkest pains fear I wandered these hallowed halls sending out my heart Never knowing that from my friends I'd be kept apart But I'm not defeated yet I can still see poetic beauty And soon I shall get up and fight for my own victory I know that you folks haven't seen very much of me Truth to tell it's been a while since I smiled sunnily My face hasn't been peeping into this poetic door I used to be here reading and replying to you all more I knew the names and was friendly with all the greats Now it's difficult for me to even find the poetic gates But I'm not bowed into abject submission no not yet And soon I shall return to give you all as good as I get I know that you think I've vanished like the cold mist Truth to tell I've not had the chance to be poetically kissed My hand hasn't been stretched out to assit and help you It often would be me who would pull someone through I would speak in light words that were carefree and gay Now I don't know quite what I should do or even say But I'm not out for the count I promise I'm still here And soon I shall be sitting here again in beauty's chair Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim |

Mushy, Please don't explain if you're in pain I'll be there in the double for I owe you your comfort true kept me out of trouble your poet's kiss I know I miss your pink of froth and stubble rest awhile until you smile and return to us with bubble Keth Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life.

Hi Marsha (Newbie here!), well I look forward to your return and can you see that you are missed? Take care, and get back here when you can, as Balladeer said, where else is there to go but home. Oh....very nice poem and a wonderfully done explanation to your friends. Take care. If I made you smile today then I did my job! |

even though your hand isn't held out. . . ours is my friend. . . and we will always hold the door open for you love. . . as always, your heart shows through your writing, which is why it always speaks to me. . . ---------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

My so dear and beloved family thank you muchly always I can rely on you, to bring a smile and to understand. I shall of course be fine, Margie has ordered her healing spirits to clear away whatever it was that I've picked up. It certainly has me and an awful lot of docs baffled. And I'm sure that anyday now they are going to be tossing the bad whatevers out of me so I can get back to being the little Puck you all know of old. In the meantime I reply when I can, not as much as I'd like to, but it does take me a little while. My love to you all I will get better I promise, in the meantime when I make an appearance I read and reply to as many as I can.  Thank you all so much Take care love and warm stuff Mushy  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim |
