(This special poem is for our wonderful friend Ethel, who in only nine months has already become a most important part of our wonderful poetic family! Ethel, you are very special to us all and we all love you so much and I think I speak for everyone here when I say that you are special and you have inspired and touched all our hearts! This is for you, dearest friend! )



Gary's Girl...Everyone's Friend
By: Noah Eaton
6/8/03

Let's sing about a special person
Who will keep painting rainbows from end to end
She is Gary's girl
And everyone's friend



She writes glimmering romantic poetry
And of sympathy for those with hearts broken
Her heart is a library of love
With each of her thoughts checked out with compassion

Her muse is one also with a golden heart
Gary is his name, who inspires her songs of romance
Painting velvet skies and canary meadows
She mesmerizes these blue jay pages with her loves dance



She always makes everyone feel special
With her heartfelt and loving replies
She already is a sister in our grand poetic family
Who has shared so many smiles in such a short time

Let's sing about this special poetess Ethel
Who always has so many heart hugs to send
Who holds the heart of a classical romantic
Who is Gary's girl and everyone's friend




Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story

***Shakira***

I got a little lump in my throat as I read your beautiful words about our beautiful friend!--and it was even more special because I know how much it will mean to her! You are both so darn wonderful!--and talented!

Loving hugs and smiles to two angels!

You've outdone yourself with this piece Noah. A fantastic, loving tribute to Ethel. She's probably grinning from ear to ear!!

Huggles to your both, Marti

Oh, goodness, Noah.......now you've got me shedding tears. But, don't worry, my friend, they are from joy instead of sadness. I just do not know the words to express to you just how much this has touched my heart....and in a time when I really need it, too.

And, Gary is going to love it, too. I'm going to print it off right now to send to him in tomorrow's mail. I want him to get it really fast. I'm sending it right along with Linda's special Gary and Ethel rictameter. Ya'll are so sweet to me.  

I will be back to express my appreciation to all these wonderful replies when I can see more clearly.

Thank you so very much, my dear friend, for this beautiful song-poem. I'm going to save it and print it, you know, right along with all my other treasures from my wonderful Passions Family. You are all so special to me.

Heart hugs, my friend  
Ethel

ah yes garysgirl is cool, but I'd be lying Noah, if I said I wasn't here for you.
Been long time since I been around, and I posted three poems just for you. ok.... so you caught me.... I didn't put them up JUST for you, but I'd love it if you'd read 'em.

One of the things I missed most about Passions was you. Your poems and replies are always so heartfelt. You could simply say, "Hi, happy to see you." and I would hear, "My life is much happier with you here."

This poem is great. I love dedications to other poets. There's no larger compliment.
Why haven't you written one for me?! I want one! (Just kidding)

This is a great piece...

Noah.....so nicely crafted by your skilful words and such a fitting tribute to one of your kind hearted peers.......
I really like these lines....
"Her heart is a library of love
With each of her thoughts checked out with compassion"

That's great poetry!

Eric, isn't Noah one of the best poets you've ever seen? Thank you for replying to Noah's poem.

Thanks again, friend for writing a poem about me & Gary. We both appreciate it.
