Tara,
wow...that comment completely ...wow...i mean...I'm almost sorry that I made you cry but that's such a great emotion. I feel so warm and fuzzy right now because of that comment, even though the Pacers just lost...which sucked, but...I saw even Shaq cry...so...I suppose we all do. lol
thank you so very very much for that comment, i wish more people had the patience to read through my entire ramble
wow, again
thank you...and...you know you can always email me if you want to talk about anything i wrote
Alexander~"He Skims"...was magnificent!!!
DARN GOOD TOO!!!
Laurie West~I enjoyed "the thought", very much...it was very cute.:)
Wow...thanks for all the compliments on my newest poem. I'm glad I can write something that affects so many different people. I'm really starting to like this place. Think I'll hang up my hat and stay awhile.
Oh Geez! You guys, I am soooooo far behind in reading the new submissions, that I despair of ever getting caught up.
A short note on my latest 'Lines'--if it seems a little disjointed, it is...I didn't try to work with it at all, I just typed it and sent it....so forgive....
Late Happy Father's Day to all of the daddys...
anyone I owe e-mail to, I swear I will get to it tomorrow...
I miss you guys, and I promise I will get caught up and read all of the excellent works you have been posting...who knows...maybe some of it will inspire me once more....:)
nighty-night love bugs
Eric ~ I like boomerang!
Nikki ~ Lines is kickbutt! I've been at Goodbye before. Not pretty.
Terry ~ "Flight" ..My what a big toe you have...=P
Jenna ~ Precise. I like.
Laurel ~ I have felt like "today". Empty.
"The Magic Pen". wow. Is it true?
"Disregard this on reading". I've been there too. Call him if you can and you really do love him. Losing touch sucks.
Crystevin ~ I like that. "Lovely Rainbow". What's her name? ;-)
Gala ~ "Learned from Little Sister". Cute.
Zoe ~ It's all good! I like seashells!
Echolocation ~ I know how that goes. There's this lady I have a crush on. Nothing really to base it on. I only know her a little but when she smiles at me my heart stops.
Angel ~ "Letting go" I feel that way.
Riggs ~ I know how you feel too. I was there for years.
kevin ~ "again almost" is awesome too. I think I shall also have to settle for unsettled.
Ashley ~ "Beyond Blah". Hope you get beyond that blah feeling.
shadygirl ~ "trampolene". I've been a step on a bounce before.
Alexander NewField ~ "There are no free Lobster dinners". I hope I can be as strong as you. Lobster is expensive.
If I read anymore I'll never sleep tonight. Thanks for posting all! If i didn't make a comment it doesn't mean I didn't appreciate it. It just means I didn't make a comment.
Share the love.
Michael
Eric,
If more people had the patience to read something that is so beautiful and raw.... then there would be more people worthy of and capable of love, pure, unconditional love.
Tara
P.S. I like your idea of a collaboration section... each person has something special to offer to a piece.
Alex,
Yes...stay awhile! Guys like us need all the displays of unity we can get. I'll admit I fell into the 'women really want jerks' trap for a time, but--let's face it--we can only be our true selves, right? Sooner or later we'll find the woman who can appreciate us for who we are. And then when we do find her--and we will--it's up to US to never let her go!
Gala and Michael,
Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. The days are long when you are alone. I love it, i hate it, it's certainly an adjustment.
Crystevin
Hi! I didn't even realize there was a msg board! Silly me. Just wanted you all to know that I love the blender. Everything I've ever seen posted was fantastic!
*~Paul B.~* I'm trying on that screen play. Can you give me some pointers on format so I don't make a fool of myself?
*~Micheal~*
"The Magic Pen"...well, I've never had the nerve to ask my dad if it's true or not. I think it's actually about a friend my parents had and the fears they had during college and their time apart. Fortunately they lasted and didn't have to face those kinds of problems. They've been together since their freshman year of high school.
I'll try to call him. I'm so scared of what will happen though. Thanks! you just inspired a new poem!.. gonna hurry and write this down
Thanks again!

Chris~ You "will" find her??? I thought you had ALREADY found her, you dork! And if you even THINK about letting me go I'll put ya in a headlock!!!
BTW...*It's Perfect* is perfect! Falling stars in Utah...hot fudge sundaes in Austin...<sigh> I'm there, darlin'!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxoooooooooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Michael- "Make it Real" I agree...
-Jenna-
HMS- Oh yes...all are welcome in the glorious cyber pity party. Ash is doin' a lil better than me but hey? If it weren't for a little bit of sunshine we'd give it up...
R.S.V.P to my pity party invite at WVUMegs25@aol.com *grin*
*skips off to read new subs*
Megs
Awwwwwww Kev- "Into" ...liked it. Lots.
Micheal- The sentiments of "Make it Real" have been dancing around in my head. It DOES take two. And here I am in some bizarre love OCTAGON (too complicated to be a triangle) wondering why no one can get it together and love the one that loves them...
But ANYWAYS it was a good read.
Nikki- I missed ya babes!!! "Lines" was good. Where HAVE you been? "Goodbye" was good as well...is everything okay? I just have to check...
Chris- "Its Perfect" Yup...it is. So are you guys *grin*
*strolls off for a nap*
Heya all -- just a quick note.
As some of you may know Gala/FGM had surgery this morning, she asked me to pop a quick note on the board so to update you all on her condition....
Thanks to my informant who rang the hospital and told duty nurse that Gala was his fairy god mother, and that qualified him as family -- here is what I know...
• Her condition is officially 'fair'.
• She got out of surgery at 11:00 EST, and everything went well.
• She had a good morning pain wise, (but at this point that means little.)
I tried to send her real flowers, however when I discovered the price in NZ$ I quickly changed my plan, so I've send cyber flowers.... if anyone wants to do the same her address is Galadrial60@aol.com
Take care of your hearts
dee
(oh and if anyone wants any more info, email me, but I'm not sure when I'll be hearing new news..)
hmmmm -- where to start... been hiding out in new subs, haven't commented in awhile, so I've tried to piece together the notes in my diary.
ScottE -- Special.... nice.
Alexander N. -- I'm pleased you've chosen to stay ... I particularly liked 'He skims' infact I've got an idea for a painting from that, and 'no free lobster dinners' what Terry said awhile back.
Megs 'your name over and over' very nice.... and 'keeping time' yup... liken' them.
Hank -- my handsome charming cowboy -- I've liked all of yours but my favourite is 'drowning'.
Smouldering -- my favourite pimpee.... write more will you, both email and poetry... 'view' was goooooooooood...
Kev -- 'into' mmmmmm, yes yes yes.
guppy -- 'deep dish' WOW... ummm yes, wow... speechless deevaa. (I love you)
dee
Alex--
Thought you might be interested in this... I play the guitar, and I set poems to music on occasion. Well, 'He Skims' struck me as particularly musical, and I thought it'd
work well as a song. It does! I'm pretty happy with what I came up with. I'd send you the chords, but I don't know your email address. If you're interested, get in touch with me. Take care, man.
Thanks MiChAeL :) *smiles*
-ZoE
Oooooooooooh Dee- If you have Gala's REAL address or some sort of info like that email it to me. I wouldn't mind sending her some real flowers...sprinkled with fairy dust of course!!!
Glad to hear she is okay...and thanks for the comments on my poems. I have been wiggin' out here and I feel like what I am writing is sooooooooo sporadic. UGH!!! Anyone know any magic spells to capture a man's heart forever?
*Sigh*
Megs
Guppy ~ "i shut my soul and closed my eyes
i cried for all the love i've missed" ~ Absolutely divine image you graced us with in 'Deep Dish' thanks.
laurel ~ You have been posting some really good work. Like Michael, I would love to know the full (true?)story
behind 'Magic Pen'. I think I like "Silver River' best because of the deep melancholy it evokes.
Chris ~ I loved 'Non Piangere'...and 'its perfect' made me want to go on a road trip. Bet misti has already gone there in her mind ( **side wink to misti)And the 'real love letter' was good. Damn Good!
and speaking of Misti ~ 'Reconstruction' is a stream of conscious wonder. That last line brings a deep shiver after it sinks into the rest. Wow.
Eric ~ You are writing some good things lately. I did read 'the worse poem ever written' all the way through. It was a fascinating read, and like Tara it evoked for me some strong raw emotions. You are a brave soul to bare such things to the light of public witness. Kudos
Michael ~ I did read 'Hell to live without' as soon as I found the time. The writing is excellent, though very idealistic. It made me want to know more. More at the beginning, and more at the end. Thank Evangeline for me for sharing that with us. How did you like collaborating with someone? And I will ditto what others have said about 'Make it Real'.
Kevin ~ 'Into' made me think of one of Dee's painting. The one that speaks the word unity to me. But in your words you captured a very special unity of desire and love. Wonderful!
Megs ~ 'Keeping Time by the Moon' Been there, done that myself, but you sure captured it on paper well. Thank you...
I'm still not caught up totally with all the posts, but everyone else...your work is making June special...thanks.
terry
Megs--thanks for your words on Lines and Goodbye...and sorry I have been gone for a bit, just hanging out, and trying to get my head on straight...and yes, everything will be ok, if it's not right now...
I'm still trying to make my way through the new stuff...just not enough hours in the day in which I am willing to sit still and be awake at the same time.
Happy wishes to Gala...and Dee...if you could e-mail an addy I can send something to her at (not e-mail, but snail mail)I would love it..but if you can't I understand it...(precious_lana@hotmail.com)
talk to you all soon.....later, love bugs
