distant moon-
I, for one, do actually READ every piece submitted... not 'just the regulars.' I have been among the silent of late, but have not been absent... Please allow your words to have their say here too...

hello Lovebugs...
forgive me for my lack of attention to the new posts. Next week is Finals, noe of which I have studied for...and I am absorbed in writing a new piece about someone I have no business writing about....
on a better notw ( I hope) I have found a new doctor, who I am going to see on Friday morning, and hopefully he will be able to tell me why I keep getting headaches, even though I am taking meds for them...and also why I haev had a cold for 4 months straight....actually it's going on 5...has anyone even heard of a cold lasting that long???
Anyway, I am determined to catch up on my reading, and Distant Moon~as Terry said earlier (by the way, hi big brother) I also tend to only read the ones I have grown to love and care for (since some of them don't write e-mail on a regular basis...ahem) when I am pressd for time, which seems like always...but on my days off I generally make a habit of going back to read the rest, except for songs..I don't read them, I prefer origianl pieces from the Blenderites, but that's just my thing...
Anyway...as my loving friends can see, I am once again not sleeping...I think I 4 hours logged for this week...sheesh
I will be back later to comment on a few, I hope, and hopefully I will write something worth posting any day now...
that's it for now..and the peeps I owe e-mail (and snail mail for that special one) I will do it as soon as I get a chance..
nighty night, sleep tight, and only let the love bugs bite..
nikki
I do have to jump back in for a sec to apologize for the spelling errors I made in my last post...I don't normally do that...and I hate it when it chances to happen....guess I'm not perfect after all..
again....good night my heart strings
Okay, before you buys jump all over me for male bashing, please understand that auntie Gala wants you to be blissfully happy...and one way is for you not to lose the girl of your dreams because life intruded, and you sort of forgot she was there.
Most ladies enjoy being noticed...so for god's sake, notice her. Spend two minutes each day kissing her---and think of nothing else while you do it. Not work...not life...not even getting laid. Just kiss her like you mean it. And don't be real surprised if at first, she seems startled...but persist. Once she realizes that you are seriously interested in kissing her again, you might notice a change....
Love,
Gala
SC honey,
You said a mouthful! Men and women alike get caught up in the War between the sexes thing---and love can be the first casualty. I am fully expecting screams of "foul" from the men folk---but this is truly a no-brainer. If you're married, committed, attached---don't lose each other in the shuffle. I can't think of something sadder than a love that dies by inches. There's a point of no return...after which nothing really matters. You can love her with all your heart...but if you let her get to the place where she doesn't know that...it's all over but the shouting.....
Rosa Parks was very brave
She would not act the slave
She made valid point by using her brain
History will well remember her name
Boy am I behind...LOL whew, looks like I have missed a bunch. I have been reading and I read it all as well. I am new at this too distant moon but just jump in, it't quite addictive and just plain ole fun hanging with this bunch. We like comments too..lol keeps the pot stirred and the broth good and hot..lol
Gotta chew on this man and woman thing you got going here and get back to you...feel a bump coming on here...LOL
Later
bk
Angel No Halo.....wow.....you sure can cook...positively tasty...sinful...maybe even fattening.....
And as for Mr. Terry---there must be something in the water down there sir---between you and Kev, we poor mortal females stand not a chance atall...right BK?
And I loved the dream catcher bump...you honor my simple poem, sir.
Not Just A...wow....every woman in creation wants to be thought of just like that...
Maybe we should have a charity auction...Hey Kahuna, you have a favorite charity? We could put bids on poets---high bidder gets a custom written poem by their fave.....
Come on folks----It's the season of giving. There are soup kitchens, women's shelters, all sorts of things that could use our help. So what say you?
Kahuna Kirk? As Great cheiftain, you have veto power...this is your little corner of the web...
Love
Gala
Well...I won't exactly call your comments male-bashing Gala, because heaven knows there are plenty boyfriends and husbands who have fallen into complacency. But I will defend my gender to a certain extent, because that street named 'taking things for granted' is definetly a two way thoroughfare. And I always find it a bit peculiar when these complaints spring up, they are always aimed at us guys until someone points out that not all guys do that, so then we are added in later. Almost as a afterthought. I can almost hear the reply now. "Oh I did not mean guys like you, not all guys are bad."
Sure we're not, just as not all ladies are wonderful, thoughtful, marvelously mysterious and exciting creatures. But I will admit up front that most ladies are just that...
terry
Thank you Terry and BK for your comments on "All I Want For Christmas"...*SMILE*
Zero#1~ "Traces" was wonderfully written...very descriptive...nice flow. I really liked it alot.
Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS to all front pagers...I am once again amazed to be in the company of so many great writers, novice that i am.
I am jumping around reading...whatever catches my eye...could be title...could be author...could be too lazy to scroll...LOL...but I am reading some and will comment when i have time..Lots of great works.
Oooooooh and I adore men...my father was one ;)
Angel girl,
Men are my passion. I love them to itty bitty pieces. But I have been with one man for 20 years, who has an IQ of 143 and works as a scientist...and could not tell you on his best day my favorite writer, food, color...you name it. And he is not alone....if I said that all men were like that, I apologize humbly. But it seems to be an oft repeated claim.
Guys...Gala does love you.

first off i read everything posted here as i believe most who come back do as well
there is such a broad range of talent that it would be a shame not to
though i do fall into the category of not commenting near enough as i wish i
would
yes there is a family of people here i use that term because it seems to fit the
best this is an easy family to join all one needs to do is comment on what u like
and if u like to post as well so much the better this isn't a bad thing but a real thing
as is this place very real thanks kirk
k my lady Gala heh as a guy i must say ive become used to the psychotics of
women 27 days out of a month then the demon three lol but we love u too much to
comment and i tried the kissing thing this morning lol she giggled like a little girl
when i woke her up with that i have u to thank for the giggle
late congrats to all the blenderites who made front page this month all very fine
poems by some very fine poets i managed to join this time as well as jackryhme
thanks for the picks kirk and again i have to say i don't envy u the task of choosing
plus i won second on another site achase.com a very good site for poets and artists
as well give it a go i did and was pleased by what i found
terry u have done some very fine work of late and i do apologize for not
commenting more

beautiful for human words my elven lady
whew ......to all other's my thanks i love every poem i read its jus so hard to find
the words at time to express but please keep posting and commenting
Ooooh I got me one of them too, Gala...I was actually making a funny:) But , then again, I do know a couple of men right here on the Blender that feel that they are invisible too. Me...well, I feel I am a sofa bought to fit the decor which has become outdated. I do know where you are coming from and have observed these gender traits as well (from both sides). I do think these traits can be complimentary with the right balance. I speak alot of symmetry between couples...I think the stars play a big part. The right mix...chemistry. Men are so adorable:)
it doesn't matter~ thanks for the compliment! If you could see me now, you'd see a big smile on my face...oh, i don't think that i ever told you how much i like the way you write...well, i guess i just did! Again, thank you for the compliment!
Terry~ all i can say is that you continue to amaze me with your writing.
My salutation to all the fine writers on this web site. I appreciate the enormous talent of all the participants and their effort in embracing each other’s talent by commenting with an open heart. I have been submitting my poem on this web site since August and was immensely happy to find my name on the Front Page Pick in October. Periodically, I was also posting my poems in another site called POETRY.COM and one of my poems has been selected for publication in NATURE’S ECHOES scheduled for publication in winter 2001. I would like to thank the organisers of this site and all others from the bottom of my heart for their time and effort. It feels good to feel like a drop in the ocean.
Thanks.
Akash.
sarah...i liked your dragonflies post...but i must interject that the insect it refers to is most likely of the mayfly, or ephemeroptera family...they are known (and named) for the short lifespan of the adult, which in the case of some species is only a day...they spend a decent amount of time as aquatic insects before they "hatch" into adults to reproduce.

Distant Moon~ I loved everyone of your works...I'm very impressed...hope you stick around...I am one of the regulars who has become a little irregular lately, but I do try to read most posts and do not stick to just the regular's works...I comment as I have the time and regardless of time if i'm very impressed.
RIGGS~ "Untitledworthy Pulp", A poem that ryhmes is nice...one that ryhmes well is extra nice :)
Angel,
thank you for the comments, i'll try to get some more stuff on here for everyone to read, and i'll try to read more and comment more....and I am so irregular, I need ...whatever it is you take when you're irregular...but...ok, that joke didn't work, thanks again Angel
blender is great
go blender go
What Your Love Means To Me!

Your Love means the World to me,
As a peach needs its tree to grow!
Your Love brings Endless Desires,
And thoughts of Passionate Fantasies!
I Love the way your Beautiful Smile,
Reaches up to those Wonderful Eyes!
Your Love Stretches around the World,
For each and everyone to enjoy!
Without your Love,
There would be no more!
Endless Days,
And Dreamless Nights!
When my Heart Pounds,
Your love is Thy energy!
And when I feel Happy,
It’s your Love flowing through me!
