5206 Sissy Sunshine 21 March 2006 Sissy Sunshine and the cow jumped over the moon Friendships to gather this closeness under a mushroom Across a continent spread wide two souls gathered and unified Sissy Sunshine and friend in knowing one another to depend Their beauty as if being kin two wonders of kind to partake A martyr to each other in understanding side by side in ways to proclaim Sisters of time assistance to one another to give Kindness to savour in a life borne those who live in righteousness to name “In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.” Psalms 72: 7 KJV a poet who cares [This message has been edited by poettothecars (03-21-2006 08:14 PM).] |

Sir... It is so good to see how one reads with understanding the words of poets who have, by luck, fate, fortune, and chance, found one another, as a certain Sissy and I have found one another. I do appreciate this poem very much. Thank you for your sharp sense of how people find a way to friendships within PiP. For they indeed become very special relationships, as Sissy and I both know. Thank you. |

Indeed!! Sunshine is my sissie. I never had a blood related sissie...and she has been as close as I imagine that would be. Thank you for writing this, Christopher. |

I only wish I could have done better in my writing. Given most of my works and thoughts take around 3 minutes, and this one above took 24 hours and I am still left wanting. a poet who cares |

Christopher...the writing is fine....written from the heart, seen through empathy and understanding. |

Connections on this plane are not easily understood, nor seen. Martie and I have been most fortunate in traversing the internet and finding another person so in tune with one another, that I doubt it will ever happen [to me] again. Oops... Nope, I have to take that back. There are a few other poets here that special connections are sacrosanct...I was speaking of Martie from an actual meeting. So, I need to go down the alphabet about all of the poets I have met here in my coming on seven years... and you know what, Christopher? I don't think Ron built a "reply" form that would hold all the names... Passions is my poet's home, Sir. As you continue to read, you will find many other poets to enjoy...and revere. |

I often feel there are writers and readers along with this, there being both And for me being one who writes yet is not a big or noted poetry reader that puts me in a position that to admire another persons poetry takes a major effort and places me on the back foot in places like piptalk a poet who cares |

I've been exactly where you are....and I can tell you that reading is more important than writing, even though writing feels more important at the time. I never liked it all that much before PiP, but now I do -- and these two of PiP's most beloved poets are among the best ones you could possibly read. I've also learned that being so dissatisfied with the way a poem presents what you're trying to say, is a good sign that it's going to be one of your best. I think this one of yours is exceptionally good. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

You wrote of two of the the VERY BEST! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Yes indeed, you are "a poet who cares" ~ and shares! Your words of kinship for Sunshine and Martie, brought a huge, understanding and appreciative smile to my face! Hugs for all three of you! EA |
