NOTE: This was written awhile ago for Ron Carnell, our gracious host and Ron Brockman, my first internet fan! Ron Carnell gave me a home here at Passions and Ron Brockman, encouraged and cajoled me into writing more and more (a lot of my poems were written from phrases he would challenge me with). So to them, I write this 'love' letter: One of you gave me the courage To write the songs in my heart One of you gave me a home A joyous place to start Both of you gave me freedom To pen this poet’s song For that I will always remember That I once yearned to belong You share more than a name In my eyes you share my fate With kindness and compassion It’s your approval I await The din of applause may never Be heard by this poet’s ears But I have heard your praise Soothe over my doubts, my fears Others may heap accolades Upon your deserving breast But in the quiet of my night I count you both as the best Friends that always lift me up Both sharing a common name You are The Rons, as I know you Both different yet both the same Though time will surely pass I will count each of you as friend With every rhyme, you are the reason This poet’s song will never end. |

PDV, I don't know what your challenge was but I'd say you surpassed it with aplomb Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Thank you for your kind comments!! I actually sent an email intended for Ron Carnell to Ron Brockman in the beginning of our friendship! It was effusive comments on the update of the main site - of course Ron B. said huh? LOL I find it amazing that we can be touched by someone we've never met. And it was just 5 years ago I bought my first computer and came into the strange world of the internet! And I've 'met' some wonderful people - here at PiP and in other places...thank you all so much for being who you are! |

This is really well written! Friendship lasts through a long time, and to find friends that we can relate to in one way or another, is truly a gift of fate. And you've expressed your gratitude well. I'm sure both Rons enjoyed reading what you posted. hehe_,,,^.^,,,_ |

What a great story of those who inspired you PdeV. As one who has often gone years in between bouts of poetry, this site has inspired me to keep writing, instead of putting my pen down for another few years. So glad you got the encouragement to keep writing. You always write so well, keep on writing and we'll keep on reading. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Ron Brockman drops by to read now and then, though he prefers that I still send him my poetry via email. Ron Carnell of course is here LOTS. It is nice to know that there are people in this world that are capable of such kindness. I do appreciate them both (Though Ron Brockman has given me a few phrases to create a poem from that have stumped me!!) |
