This is totally different, but feels like Mother's day When fall is there I'M PLANNING A TRIP TO THE STATES, HURRAY So that felt good to shout out loud, so everyone may hear But as I'm not a millionair, I won't be seeing you all I fear The area's I'm planning to roam are on the Eastside of the States And Florida I wouldn't miss where Marge with Bill and Deer awaits I will be staying a few days at a villa that one has rented in Tampa And we'll invite a lot of you to join us in poetic atmosphere, Caramba! Oh my, my head is spinning around for I just made this decission And I'll just be looking forward to, to this bluepagefriend's collision Mmm have to get my weight down soon, or I'll splash them out of the pool But then who gives a damn, I may be little overweighted, yet I am not a fool Oh dearests, dearests friends of Ron's blue pages, I'm such a lucky gal My hubby? Well I'll leave him back home to attend to the sheep, sorry pal So now you know, the word is out, I'll be flying in midst September And when I return, I'll cherish dearly all lovely events to remember A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

That you will be here to grace our country is a blessing in itself! I know you will enjoy each and every poet you chance to meet, and upon your face, a smile so sweet! While you may not make it to the Kansas plains, do know, sweet Poet, the wind shall carry to you refrains that shall lay gently upon your poet's ear while you receive knuffles from all poets dear! |

Sunshine sweet gal, you always make my cheeks blush I'll keep my ears open for Kansas refreins, I'm sure I will hear them. Sy, thank you Sir, I will. Teach Nan, will you dismiss me from class please, I'll make it up to you later. By the way, I will be landing in NY and probably staying short time with a friend of my daughters in NYC. How far is Cape Cod from NYC. Is there a train or greyhoundbus going to your place? I'm nuts about the sea you see and I was green with envy looking at all those pics Sharon took. If it's possible I'll come and visit you. Enchantress, I gather 'somewhere in time' is a place hard to find uhh. Thanks pal. Mushy sweet lady, didn't know if you wanted your name mentioned in my poem. I just looked up Florida and I think I'll pack my fishinggear and you won't even know I'm there sweetheart, for that's one thing I really love to do. I'll catch them, clean them, cook them and serve them Ok? Titia A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

Oh Titia I am so happy for you! I know you will be greeted with open arms by Marge and Bill and that rascal Balladeer. You dear lady are over 3,000 away from me since I got back home from the East, but take tons of pictures and get as many knuffles as you can, as I know you will share them with us. I don't know how close Disneyland is to Tampa, but someone take her there, and I want to see those pictures! Disneyland won't know what hit them! Just remember these words, (write them down now...The Christmastree Shop, Homegoods, and "barbeque", and you will think you have died and gone to heaven! Oh, and don't forget 1 Guilder = 0.41 U.S. Dollar OH NO! Did I hear the question is there a bus from New York to Nan's yes, there is, but don't listen to them - it takes 8 hours from Nan's to New York on that bus, 8 hours! Doreen is close to you there as is Masked Intruder Titia. Don't you worry, they will all do their best to try to meet you, including me! We should spend less time worrying about when our life is going to end and more on when it's going to start! [This message has been edited by Mysteria (05-11-2002 01:35 PM).] |

Ha Sharon, We don't use guilders anymore in Europe, we've the Euro now. $30 = €32,50= was 70 guilders or something like that. I've been invited by Nan already and I sure take that invitation before or after going to Tampa. Have to figure it all out yet and see what's left in my piggy bank LOL. I saw my hubby frown already, but hey, he went to see his brother in Reading PA three years ago for 3 weeks, now it's my turn to get us close to bankrupty I'm not quite in for Disney, rather fight an alligator in the swamps. Will take lots of pics though. Titia A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

Hai Marge, BIG SURPRISE, ain't it. And probably there will be Keth from Aussi and Nan (Pilgrimage)too as I've understand. We'll just make a big happening. Mmmmm have to sell some sheep first I think to fill up my piggy bank. I'll take a bag full of knuffels with me and I'm very generous in giving them away. See ya all in September Titia (getting all fishy here) A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

The welcome mat's always out for you, Titia!! I'll be as sheepish as I can so you will feel at home. (Mysteria can verify I am!) This will be great Oh, sure, Marge...you're all excited! Had me here two hours away for 3 years, refused every invitation and now you're excited to see poets...I'm crushed! |

Oh Tita....I am so happy for you! I really want to go to this shindig, so very badly, but I don't know how my health is going to be in September, or what type of treatment I might be going through at the time, so I can't make any arrangements just yet...but if I can, I intend to be there...even if we can't stay at the villa, we can stay at a nearby hotel for a couple of days...But, it all depends on my health. I am so happy for you....but I am also green with envy... Happy Mother's Day, Titia ~envious hugs Lyra |

Oh Titia, this is great news. I sure wish I could see you and everyone else, too. But, I live in Central Oklahoma. So, there is no way I will be able to see you. You have a wonderful trip. And, Happy Mothers Day! [This message has been edited by SmartChick (05-11-2002 06:25 PM).] |
