Sometimes, beginnings are remarkable... other times, they become remarkable in retrospect... after we've enjoyed someone day after day through year after year in good times and bad until we couldn't imagine a tomorrow without them. *S* You and June are so lucky to have found foreverly friendship in each other. *S* This is very lovely!

Margie gil darling sister of my soul, you know exactly how I feel about your writing I think it’s truly outstanding not just in form but the content is always so beautifully expressed, this is TRULY PERFECTION. I love this darling heart, it’s utterly utterly fabulous.

My opened mouth as another Margie girl miracle unfolds before my eyes and my soft whisper of that is true beauty should tell anyone who saw me that I’m well pleased. YOU of course can see me through the power of your heart’s touch. This is something extremely special, I can’t wait to see your line of cards darling heart. Foreverly Yours Ink will be a wonderful success I know.

Your writing always makes the keeper list, excellent writing as always


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

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

Marge,  my foreverly thing to do at that
age was to stare into the water, trying to
find the fish or the crayfish...Being a boy
that loved to fish....

This is beautifully done...love the visual.

*Friends, I thank you all for the kindness of your replies~

June sent me this graphic, with the sweet notation of -
'it's meant as a special 'Thank You' for being such a *Sweet*, sweet friend.

This is you and me...the two little Twinsie Shoesies...gazing into the reflections of our 'Yesteryears'...wondering if I was once you...and you were once me, before we were 'Us'...


Now how could I not be touched by such a sweet, heartfelt thought~
We are so connected ... one would swear we just might be Siamese twinsies! (and we're almost convinced)
I swear we each have a mark on our arms where we just 'may' have been separated ... but, our hearts are one~

Julie~
Thank you so much~

InterLoper~
Thank you ... she's worth every thought my heart maintains~

SweetSuzieQ~
Thanks hon .... you're a sweet, sweet friend~

TiersdinSIS~
Was hoping you'd enjoy it ... thank you~

CatalinaMoon~
Oh ... I've been accused of wearing it on my sleeve ....
guilty as charged~
Thank you sweetie~

Enchantress~
She oozes talent ... and love~
Thanks sweet lady~

MartieSis~
YOU are just the sweetest of the sweet~
I love you gal~

SweetSuthernLady~
You know that I hold you in this loving circle of friendship ... I shared your sweet e-mail with June ... explaining that the ripples of this simple little poem were felt far~
Thank you always for being YOU and for sharing with me~
God knows that I can't wait for September to get here ... I want to give you the biggest *HUG* you've ever had in Florida !!!!!

Marti~
She's a sweetie for sure .... and we've kind of worked this mutual admiration thingie to fit both our hearts~
Thank you dear friend~

PoetdeVine~
Thank you so much .... ahhhhhh, not just Internet cards .... hoping to go to market with a line~

Joyce~
Thank you for the kind reply.
I sure believe that friendship is as good as it comes ... I give .... I get~  Doesn't get much better than that~

MarshaLove~
You're such a dear~
AND ... maybe we'll have a Foreverly Yours, Ink preview in time for September !

*Hugs* to all ... and June ... I love you~
