In Gifting Return ~*Marge Tindal*~ What inspire of thought did I find now and who sent it to me anyhow ? I left it on the porch - and I'll be durned I came back out ... and it returned Must be that it was meant to wend it's way into this scrawl of pen~ Why was I the chosen one to catch your thoughts on-the-run ? Danged if I can figure it out .. but it plopped in my ink ... there is no doubt So I'll do what poets do ... I'll write it, then gift it back to you~ Take a teardrop from these eyes caress it for a while Oh my friend, I need for you to return it as a smile~ Not a teardrop falls that you do not see please dry this one very tenderly For in sharing, I have learned a tear-in-fall is soon returned to rest upon this tear-stained face as a smile-in-spread of friendship's grace~ So my friend, wherever you are know I've heard your plea I'll hold your tears until I know that you can smile once more for me~ ~Sometimes ... they come without my knowing just who they need to touch This one did ... so there must be a friend who needs it very much~ ~Please accept this tiny word-wrapped gift of thought~ June 22, 2002 ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

*Friends~ Went out on the porch for my morning coffee, came back in and told Bill, "I left a thought out on the porch ... I need to take my writing tablet out and try to catch it." It circled until I sat still enough to let it light~ For each of you a *hug* ... and if the thought was yours ... two *hugs*~ Thank you all so much for the tenderly sweet replies~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Margie girl darling sister of my heart and holder of my soul’s reason, this is utterly utterly delightful. You know I love it, it is written with pure brilliance utterly perfect. The soft sound you can hear is my almost soundless sigh of breathless wonder. This is better than good it is utterly utterly superb darling heart. Of course you know that, and pretending you don’t doesn’t wash with me darling, you know I’m up to all your tricks. Have we not discussed the way you simply outclass me constantly? I’m not asking for much a little slip in quality once in a while wouldn’t hurt, your reputation wouldn’t suffer, and I might just get a reply or two that didn’t say. Mushy must do better. As I said this is superb, I’ll forgive you because I adore you, but still………… just a tiny slip……….. I won’t tell anyone I promise ![]() ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Thank you for this, Marge.....I think I am the one. On Monday, I am going to have a biopsy to make sure that the cancer is gone completely. I really think it is.....and my intuition has been right, all along...but I just can't help being scared right now. I probably won't know the results for at least a week later, but if there is a tumor there.....I will definitely know that its cancer.... If all is well.....than I will gift you with that smile which you so deserve... ![]() ![]() Lyra |

Why was I the chosen one to catch your thoughts on-the-run ? Because you listen. *S* This is beautiful and tender, Marge... just like the heart you hold ever-open for your friends. *S* |

OhJune,MyTwinsieFriend~ I'm sharing so that others will know just how strong our 'connection' is~ ![]() ___________________________________________________ June wrote- 'This is stranger than strange...I went through all my emails today...and this one wasn't among them...I know, because my little 'mailbox' Icon was empty when I went back on line to send your letter today. IF you've found my email, you will know that this was written the day Rusty's Father passed away...of which, you had no way of knowing. And...yet...just out of nowhere...here it is??? Had I had the chance to get on line on the 22nd, I would have found it there...guessing you somehow knew we were the one's to whom it was meant... A belated Thank You for your little 'word~wrapped gift of thought' which, indeed, has brought a friendship smile that I must return to you. I didn't go to Pip forum, and am sure others felt the same...but, in this case, dear friend...I just can't help but think, though we were miles apart...you knew.' _____________________________________________________ My friend ... I am so sorry that Rusty lost his father and that you had to return from Georgia early on such sad circumstances~ Know that I love you ... and think of you all~ My sincerest condolences to Rusty and the family~ Love you dear Twinsie Of My Heart~ ![]() 'I'll hold your tears until I know that you can smile once more for me~' *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
