Kit She is the swiftest of the swift Both physical and mental gift An aurora borealis With a wonderland of Alice She’s tenderness both sweet and fair Within her thoughts and what she dare And kissed my cheek that raised a lump That almost stopped my heart from pump. She’s days delight and Puck at night And writes in rhyme in sheer delight. I could not have a better friend To spend three days and have an end I am a tender soul myself And often store my wealth a shelf But this I’ll always keep my side This tender moment of abide. She too has opened up a door Twill never close forevermore. |

To sit in a room full of Sy & Kit watching 'Deer and Mysteria battle with wit to hear a Sonnet of Liz and Nan's to hear Ruth swing rhyme as only she can I think I would have shadowed the sun to sit quietly, to just be one with all of the best in one great room to experience a forever of poetry in bloom Thank you for these treasures, Sy! |

Seymour darling heart, Your words are like crystal rain which falls blessing the drought and watering the arid places in this readers heart. Admittedly I haven’t got any arid places in my heart but that’s because I take a dose of Seymour at least once a day and often a lot more than that You have such a descriptive pen darling boy, you write and I can see the scene, the person animates and is living and breathing. YOU do work wonders with your pen love you really do. Absolutely wonderful exquisite writing, I love it. Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Awwww ... thank you Sy. This is just beautiful, and I will cherish it always ... To meet the man behind the lines, Whose flowing verse is so devine, Was such a treasure I will hold, Forever, as the truth be told. It was such a treat talking with you about art Sy, and learning the analysis of personality through strokes and colour ... such memories and treasures I brought home with me. My doodles will never be the same. Thank you, for being you. You are as sweet and gentle as your words. Best wishes and big hugs, /Kit [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (04-26-2002 10:59 AM).] |

Kit, LOL don't worry about the doodles. Now that you know the meanings you would change them anyway. We had a ball with all you lovely people and it's something I will remember a long time. Bless you dear. Melissa, You are a wonderful poet and one of my fovorites. Some day there will be that big meeting and what an affair that will be. Love Sy |

Ah you got our dear Kit to a "T", and I will not soon forget your analysis of why Kit and I both do exactly the same doodle and the meaning of the strokes for each of us. (Kit is more reserved and a thinker, and I am the creative, impulsive one!) Oh we so enjoyed you Sy, and this was a great poem for her. Imagination is more important that knowledge |

It would take a language not yet invented to do her justice but you come very close, Sy. Very nicely penned.. |
