For all you have given to all of us, may this birthday bless you, Janet Marie, with all of your love in return Passionate Woman Passionate woman, delicate heart Songbird of love from which lyrics depart You are the essence of earth’s greatest hymns You are the source from which music begins Passionate woman, dreamer of nights Wrapped in the glow of mysterious delights Swept to our door on the wings of a dove Bringing to us an indelible love Passionate woman, mind of a sage Speaker of wisdom and reaper of age Where are the words that exude from your pen? They’re written in phrases endowed to a friend Passionate woman, maker of dreams Following flow of the white water streams Where did she go when she rounded the bend? She left behind rainbows to comfort a friend Thank you, Janet Marie With Love Liz |

Oh mercy Liz, but is she ever going to love this! Especially the reference to the ocean. I wish I could wrap mine up and send it to her for her birthday, nope - better still - wish I could take it to her m'self! Beautiful Liz, she is truly a kind, loving, considerate, and generous woman - and she write pretty darn good herself yanno? Loved these lines m'friend: Passionate woman, maker of dreams Following flow of the white water streams Where did she go when she rounded the bend? She left behind rainbows to comfort a friend ~* Happy Birthday Janet Marie *~ Bet I will be saying that more than once today |

Liz, this has such a beautiful flow as always. You have such an amazing talent, my friend. Happy Birthday JM! Not only do you bring warmth and delight to us when "you" write ... but you bring warmth and delight when others write "about" you! Best wishes to two of my favorite Passionate ladies, /Kit |
