Jack and Terry: I love to write with you both. You inspire me more than you know and I always look forward to your works. Thank you both for being here for me to learn from.

slug...yeah, a case of the mean reds lately(breakfast at tiffanys reference)...i'm checking into whether or not mars is habitable yet...i'd like to move there...thanks for the compliment...and thanks for the concern...i hate being whiney, but i do it so well
gup
"when i get the mean reds, the only thing that helps is tiffany's. it's like nothing could ever go wrong in a place like that. it's so quite and the proud look of it all - when i find a place that makes me feel like that, why, i'll buy some furniture and give the cat a name." (yes, i can do almost the whole movie verbatim. i also have when harry met sally down cold.)
i don't know if mars is habitable. but i'm sure there's some deserted islands that haven't been invaded by real-life tv shows yet.
i do hope you feel better. (if i could, i send some of my happiness your way. except that i'm REALLY enjoying it:-), and i think it would mean less as second-hand happiness.)
guppy
i tried mars not too long ago...
its even harder to breath there than it is here.
empathy
oh, terry, just call me billy, please is beautiful.
Gala~Jack~BK~slug~...thank you tremendously for the kind words, and never underestimate the effect on my spirit.
And guppy...maybe slug has hit upon a stroke of genius and we should start a collection to buy some secluded island in the tropics...after all we already have a resident fairy godmother queen ...lol

Riggs: You had me scared there you might spin yourself into a tasmanian devil hole. Hope it's better now
guppy: Somehow that Clark Gable, I just don't give a damn, when you know he damn well does would be very Martian in nature when Venus is what he really needs. Maybe Brando screaming 'Stella!' Its good you have poetry as an outlet for it and even in the mean reds, you do it very well.
slug: are we going off into kissing bliss again here. What is the dirty dirty? anyway?? LOL
Terry: My mind is racing, and my heart is pounding already and I haven't had any coffee yet this morning..LOL 'You' is wonderful.....I think I feel a bump coming on...LOL LOL
So far this web site is a big waste of time. I'm still looking for something interesting that isn't stupid. "nega-scooby"?, who cares? You have way too much time on your hands. Apparently, so do I.
where can i find love poems with interpretations?
Miss Patty? An old expression...kiss my grits!
And Terry?
On behalf of those of us who read the Blender from work---please sir, mercy. Swooning is strictly forbidden by county guidelines. Maybe you can come up with a rating system so us vaporish types will know not to read such things at work?
Pretty please?
Gala
Gala: My Great Grandmother used to say about gum chewing women; 'Gum chewing women and crowing hens will always come to no good end'...LOL LOL Guess thats why I always like to kiss and blow bubbles at the same time...lol lol. I loved your poem!
Thanks BK---
Oh, and for the Blenderites, the sassy Ms. BK is the latest contributor to Galadrial's Garden...check her out!
And I love the way the bumps took such different directions---way cool!
Gala
Oh no, BK......love notes again? Why are my fingers feeling itchy...lol
And Gala~ that ending line with the bubble gum is an instant classic. I have chuckled to myself all morning...
And Kevin~ yea the bumps do seem to go every which way...but again I am impressed with the tight, concise construction of your work. 'the answer' was wonderful. I hope to grow up as a writer some day to do what you do.
t.
I live in a deserted island... come on over!! (don't own in... but what the hell!)
dee
kevin: what we are - nicely put. so enjoyable that there was a whole list of you to read today!
gala: i'm not usually a fan of the bumps ( i prefer that each poem stand firmly on it's own, which is naive, and i admit that it's naive, but anyway...) however, given the state that's i've been in (kissy-bliss) it was perfect. and i chuckled. out loud. and now i'm getting weird looks from my fello computer lab-ers.
and BK: "dirty dirt" - no one wants to hear that oh he opened the door for me again and blah blah blah - they want the good stuff. the stuff you don't talk about at your parents business dinners. does that make sense?
and as far as desert island...i'm all for that. as long as we don't vote each other off, because that's cruel. but if i had a million dollars...(i'd buy you a green dress, but not a real green dress, that's cruel. and i'm quoting the barenaked ladies and really need to be studying now.)
slug
My Story is here www.testcards.org/brian.htm at least read it so you can tell me what you think.
Thank you

Terry -- handsome man -- I love 'May I paint you' .... and I mean that, I LOVE 'May I paint you'.
I don't just like it or think its nice, or even lovely.... I LOVE it..... , its sensual, its passionate.... its everything I wish I could have written.
May I paint it? can we post them together -- on my site, on your site, in the garden? anywhere -- everywhere..... (thats if I do half as good a job as you did writing it!) ... and I KNOW its meant to be painted through the eyes of a man, but I think I can do it.....
please?
Sure Dee.....instead of a poetry bump call it an art bump...lol...another Blender invention. Thank you for the compliment, I am honored.

ali - your latest poem brings to mind one quote: "forgive me father, but i've fallen in love. And that's all i have for confession today....[skipping some lyrics] Yes dear, I love you, but sometimes i think that love's not enough for you. so you want to play mind games? well, that's fine, go ahead; la la la I can't hear you..." Barenaked Ladies (Blame it on Me - off of their debut, Gordon.
apparently it's a recurring theme and i agree- love, in itself, is its own justification. if you're fortunate enough to find it.
um...hey Terry....can you paint me?
