I NEEDthem!

Boy Cindy you sure took that seriously! Now, seeing as I don't want to disappoint you, I'll try my best to write the poem. Heck, I'll even dedicate it to you! And if anyone else has any weird phrases, they can post then here, 'cause even with those 12 of RG's I'll only be writing one poem!

LOL-thank you Cindy. I promise to try.

Yeah if I can! But, since I promised to try and because I did ask for them, I am bound to do something with them!

(Just don't blame me if the poem really sucks!   )

Elizabeth,
I don't expect you to do it in one poem.
I would love to see some of them written though.
Good luck with the ideas and the poems.
If you have any left-overs, pass them on.  Although that may not be a good idea, because you'll take all the good ones and leave me with the brussel sprouts.
