There Will Come A Time Dedicated to ‘Deer A compilation of titles There Will Come A Time when I stop reading you I think that will be when my life is through These ballads that flow from your pen are so fine Intoxicate me like a fine vintage wine When I’m old and greying in The Nursing Home I’ll recall those times of poetry’s foam I’ll tell The Dummy who’s as deaf as a post And say come my friend I give you a toast To the Poet Who Writes on Napkins here’s to you May your words ever shine in accents so true There’s no doubt you write For The Common Man When your writing touches all that it can Abraham, Martin & John were men of note But I doubt if any one of them ever really wrote Words that touched a soul like yours do When I read Treblinka that’s when I knew The Memory Of Marie that was a stunning piece Such magic you weave may your pen never cease How To Be A Famous Poet a very witty write As always your words flow with deep delight Good humour and wit mixed with skill and grace Writing so fine you always hold poet’s place Ask The Fortune Teller and she would reply Your writing dear ‘Deer really makes me sigh For PiP’s writers and The Man Who Liked Poetry This is dedicated to you and written by me For those Night Travellers who wish to read this Imagine if you will a simple poetic kiss Within your poems I’ve walked roads of hope I’ve listened to songs and heard of ways to cope I thank you dear ‘Deer your writing is sublime And I truly believe that There Will Come A Time Marsha Breathe through the heat of our desire Thy coolness and they balm Let sense be dumb let flesh retire Speak through the eathquake wind and fire Oh [This message has been edited by Marsha (06-10-2002 07:08 PM).] |

Marsha, I bow to your talent. Genuflect till I've a pain in the neck. And you did him up brown. Well done Marsha. |

Ah, Mushy, what a sweet thing for you to do! Those archives have your footprints all over the place!!  Thank you for such thoughtful words, kind miss. If I have added just one minute of enjoyment to your life then it's all worth while. Because of people like you (and those wonderful offspring), I keep on writing. Your recognition makes me glow....I thank you  |

You've written of Deer in the blue pages here what more can I say but hip hip hooray. Keth. Fabulous tribute love. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Oh what a beatiful tribute to Balladeer, Marsha. As I was reading it, I wished that I had been here earlier so that I could read all of the wonderful poems he wrote, that I had missed. Maybe I'll search the archives and read them all. I read Krissy's tribute too! Both are excellent...totally different styles and I could never say that one is better than the other.... they are both really terrific. Michael must be quite flattered that you two are fighting over him...LOL ~ loving hugsLyra |
