How many times I took my mouse and clicked on the window's screen to open worlds that aren't mine and where I've never been How close Australia looks to me On a 17 inch display I smell flowers so colorful from Florida almost every day I felt the wind of hurricanes blowing through my hair I saw the dammage left behind but only had my heart to share I've seen your happiness and sorrow through many words penned down in rhyme But... does it matter we've never met we still became good friends in time I weep when you feel pain, you know I'm proud when you achieve a goal I feel like a godmother to a little new born living soul How many times I've clicked my mouse to watch the blue page screen Feeling love and friendship flow to me, from people I've never seen And when I go to bed at night I create my world in dreams You're only just one click away much closer than it really seems Thank you for showing me your world for letting me come close to you And yes I even saw Balladeer miss that hole on green fields too  Like scattered leaves...my words will flow [This message has been edited by Titia Geertman (10-03-2004 08:43 PM).] |

You are a treasure, a beating heart that is heard across oceans and mountains. No, it doesn't matter one bit to me, though I sure wish I could have met you in Florida when you made that historic visit. |

I was robbed!!  Other than that, you are so right, Titia. This little box with its infernal mouse has opened up new worlds for us in so many ways. For example I got to meet a dutchie half a world away that I would have never known existed had it not been for cyberspace...likewise people from England, Austrailia and New Zealand. It's a wonderful time to be alive...  |

and yes, it does matter we've never met, I want to meet everyone. "pout" This is really sweet Titia Maree  Well I see you doing, What I try to do for me, With the words from a poet, And a voice from a choir, And a melody, nothing else matters. ~Stevie Nicks |

Liebe Titia, die Waerme Deines Herzens strahlt durch den Monitor! You put your heart in this and across the world it is felt. And I agree with Balladeer when he says "it's a wonderful time to be alive" ... may the e-world cancel the borders and induce people to realize that we are One ... when we truly awaken to this awareness we can profit from our worldwide connections to MAKE PEACE. It was nice to meet you ... on a soul level. For the rest, we can still dream .... Beautiful! Love, Margherita  |

TitiaLove~ It matters to me that we heart-met~  I see you in the meadow, hear you in the whistle of the train As the memories return and I hug you once again~ I think of you when photographing the flowers that you love so much and most of all ... I recall your arms surrounding me in loving touch~ Remembering ... remembering~ Thank you for this ... today~ I needed it ... oh, so much~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, the spirit rejoices over what it has left. - Sufi epigram <))>< Email noles1@totcon.com |

There have been many posts in tribute to these blue pages and some of the poets here, but I do believe this one encompasses the best of the best and says it better than I have read. Such a beautiful way to express what we all have come to know, and you are larger than life and I for one have always enjoyed having you around in here. I may be gone for periods of time due to life situations, but some names you just look for and YOU are one of those names. So nice to see your name here. I enjoyed much this visit. |

Titia darling heart sister, loving hugs to you from me, I’ll always recall your face, your smile, and your loving touch here within my heart. I also hold a precious memory of your face when you confessed about the ice cream to Krissy. *S it was a hoot, wasn’t it? As for this delightful poem darling one, it is exceptional, just as you are. I have some news for you, I’ll send you a note I promise Speak soon, keep smiling sweet one, for your smile warms my soul as always Mushy   Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Midnitesun, thanks and who knows, there's still time, if only I had more money in my purse, bless you my friend. Balladeer, robbed by a groundhog  It was such a pleasure meeting you, I hold dear memories of time spend in Florida.Maree, you were so close to meet my daughter this last Spring and yes, I'm pouting too because I too want to meet them all. Margherita, Du bisst von Deutschland?? oder wohnst Du irgendwo anders und spreche Sie Deutsch. And you are so right, let poets rule the world and there will be peace. Marge, you know I hold you very close to heart my friend and thanks for your lovely words. Hold on to those memories, they're all we got for the time being. Mark, you make me blush at my old age, didn't know I'm one of your favorites. Returning the compliment my friend, enjoying your poetry too, though you hardly see my name in the replies, don't always have the time to read and reply. Marsha dear, even seeing your 'pink' makes me smile again in good memory. I recall eating the 'wrong' icecream, but it happened to be my favorite too Wish we could all be together again, it's been three years already, how time flies. Hugs to you all, Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |
