Tomorrow I will celebrate my third anniversary at Passions (I have a special poem ready for THAT). But today I wanted to pay tribute to some very special people.  It has been my great pleasure to write and work alongside most these wonderful poets for three years. They make this place so wonderful. Please join me in thanking THEM for all they’ve done….(I’ll be posting several of these tributes throughout the day)

Ron

A monument to members
He stands solid as Rushmore
His poetry and prose are
What gives this girl a crush more

In this series of vignettes
Goddesses of a fashion
It’s only right to begin with
The founder of poetic passion




Nan
Goddess of Safe Harbors

Teacher of truth
Beacon of light
Bring poetry’s ships
Safely home at night

Beckon all that land
Upon passion’s beach
Goddess of Harbor
Within Passion’s reach




Kit
Goddess of Peace and Harmony

Peace and harmony is she
Smiling down on the flowers
Her gift of love for all to see
Given freely for hours and hours

Tender regard and honesty
Describe this lady fair
No one gives more of heart
To prove the gift of care

Now that's what I call a tribute.

All three deserve it for being just who they are and You Poet deVine: this is just marvellous.

Thanks, Titia

I've read several of these and you've done youself proud.
Congrats on the three years!!
All of what I've read is very fitting. I've been here a couple of years myself but I can't remember the day I came on board.
Because of work I leave for periods of time so sometimes I'm travelling behind in the news dept but I have to say this is an absolutely delightful place to hang out!
Great read!

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.
