This is the "poetic" (and I use the term loosely)reply I wrote to Serenity Blaze's poem "inner thoughts revealed by rain"

SERENITY BLAZE

~*~

You have chutzpah
You have balls
Your rain of words
Is like Niagara Falls

You speak the truth
You speak your mind
Your poetic works
Are quite a find

You are unique
You've found your niche
Rein not your words
On edit's leash

You spill your guts
You share your thoughts
Your poetic works
Are enjoyed lots

Sometimes you write
With rhyme and reason
Then off you rant
'Tis hunting season

You hold our interest
With your sage mots
You make us laugh
With your derry-o's

Be they simple
And in-your-face
Be they ranting
Or full of grace

Your poems delight
And make one think
You fill the gaps
You're the missing link!

~*~

(smiles) Oh Linda, yay, this is beautiful, I LOVE IT!!! You speak of our sweet Karen so wonderfully here, and I believe her poetry is grand at doing all she can to fill that missing link as her style is so unique and unorthodox and beautiful! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, and God Bless Serenity, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Linda, thanks you are too sweet!

and the missing link, huh? toe tapping...

okay, okay, not QUITE the missing link, but I am MRS. MISSING LINK. (I deserve a nobel peace prize for upping that man's family gene pool... )

Thanks all...I'm off to prepare for tonights nationally televised football slaughter. (Saints vs. Bucs) sigh...

Linda, I agree whole-heartedly with your poem about our
little serenity Karen. She is very unique, but also very
sweet and caring, too. She comes up with some
really good ideas
and is very outspoken with her beliefs. She always tries
very hard to be fair, though, doesn't she? I see by her reply
that she really liked your tribute to her. I'm glad.
You are really sweet, too, little earthy angel.

You guys are great.

Mrs. Missinlink really needed the smile today. Maybe someday I'll tell ya'll all about it. (some of you already know)

hmmm...

with a little distance it might make a decent poem...

grin.

hard knocks? or great writing material?



Thanks again, all, and hugs to Linda!

Yes, that was a very "gracious acceptance speech" by Karen! She is one who should be centre stage being loved by her adoring fans and I am pleased that this poem gave her another platform! tehe

Karen  ~

Sorry to hear you are going through a difficult time right now. But you are right about one thing, you most likely could make a good poem out of it ("with a little distance") and get some gain out of your pain!

~ Sending you some loving pink, and healing green, light

hugs,
Linda
