she's prone to hallucinations, giving herself fancy names such as Princess of Quite A Lot, Queen of Everything and insisting that she is born with a crown-- it just got stuck in her mother's womb. a walking bundle of contradictions yet she's not the scatterbrain you might condescendingly dismiss her to be. an environmental activist, she's fiercely devoted to enjoying nature. i lost my romantic self forever (life has a way of dragging us along) til i read her keen observations about nature which reminded me fondly of the days i started out as a reader,alive only in my world of Enid Blyton and her gorgeous farm stories, knowing that such bliss would someday somehow be mine. she's fighting cancer Like the chipmunk who darts skillfully away from the clutches of the big bad wolf, she will prevail and i dream again of the day when i awake in the loving embrace of nature. *************************************** dear lyra, i hope you don't feel that i am exploiting your situation in order to gather replies...please accept this musing in good faith, as i have meant it in all sincerity... dedicated to larry too, for it was his poem that made me get rid of my procrastinating nature(for a while) and make me want to do something this meaningful..give that man a BUMP!

How nice that you have written that your love for nature was reborn through Lyra's poetry. I'll have to take notice of it myself. Thanks! |

I am a nature lover and yet Lyra keeps inspiring me over and over again, and I love humor and her great sense of humor I so love. This is a nice write for her and no way would you be capitalizing on expressing your,mine, our love for a wonderful person. I am thankful you wrote this and that I stopped by to read it fate. thanks, floria Floria |

Well Heng, Let's all give a special prayer that Madame Chip does pull through, cancer is an ugly beast and she can definitely use what love and support we can give. |

faterider, How awesome! I love the things in your poem that reflect a knowledge of her work. I recognize them all. And thank you for your kind words for me. Let's all remember, as you said, this is about Lyra and her battle. Lyra, Courage friend and know you are loved. |

Like the chipmunk who darts skillfully away from the clutches of the big bad wolf, she will prevail and i dream again of the day when i awake in the loving embrace of nature. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yes she will prevail! This is wonderful faterider! We all pray that Lyra will be around for a long long time... to remind us of the joys of nature. Thanks for this one! ~Hugs, Nancy~ ~Sometimes all you really wish for... |
