Hi All,
.45MAN and I are back from a wonderful week in St. Simons Island, GA. Our week ended on a very bad note when we learned that LBGA had succumbed in her brave battle against ovarian cancer. We have lost a dear friend and FR has lost a dedicated FReeper.
Hoping that ((((LOUIE_WOLFIE_MAN))))) is feeling better. I hate that he has been in so much pain.
I missed you all. Am easing back into FR slowly, tending mostly to pings that I have received on Lynne's prayer (now memorial) thread. Hope to see more of everyone, soon.
Meanwhile, I have a poem to share that I wrote for Lynne:
To Lynne (LBGA) With Love
Another star was added
To the nights sky
Your spirit burns brightly
A light that will never die.
The void that we feel now
Will be filled one day at last
When we all meet at the Lords table
And discuss adventures past.
Meanwhile, we are certain
To feel your angels wings
As you hover close to us
Easing our griefs stings.
The Lord shared you with us
For only a brief time here
We begged for you to stay longer
But our Father needed you near.
You touched so many lives
Your star outshines all the rest
Its warm glow surpasses
The brightest and the best.
Another star was added
A strong voice heard above the din
A spirit that will never die
Well always love you, Lynne.

Love and ((((HUGS)))) to all.

Hello everybody. Good to see you all!
My Dumb Secretary
One day I hired this secretary,
I sure don't know what's her problem.
She does so many crazy things,
I wish that she would solve them.
She was looking at my computer,
noticing the plant atop of my screen.
She ran and got some water,
and poured it all over my machine.
The phone rang, she answered it,
it was our C.E.O. calling.
So flustered was she, she tangled me.
next thing I know I'm sprawling.
She was trying to staple some papers,
instead she stapled her thumb.
By now, I starting to wonder,
if maybe, she's just dumb.
Black ink she squirted
all over my shirt.
By now you'd think
I'd be more alert.
I asked her to wrap a parcel,
and please to glue on a bow.
Next time I turned to look at her,
she was glued from head to toe.
When she made the coffee,
you should have seen the mess.
I don't know how much longer,
I can put up with this stress.
The fax was unplugged, so she said;
I can't get the fax to work.
That really was the last straw,
I demoted her down to a clerk.

My Promise by Maria Sutherland November 2000
I promise you dear soldier to remember what you've done all the sacrifies you have made in battles lost and won. I promise you dear soldier that you will not have fought in vain even when the years have come and gone and only your tombstone does remain I promise you dear soldier a poppy I will wear to show the world I'm proud of you and that I will always care I promise you dear soldier to teach my children well so that they will always remember and to their children the stories tell To you I make this promise an oath straight from my heart to never, ever forget you and that in my life you have a part. Lest that we forget the terror that is war and all that has been given by those who fought before

What Is A Birthday
by: Emily Matthews, Wendy's Page
It's knowing you're
somebody special today
And waiting to see
what the hours bring your way,
Forgetting the things
that you don't like to do
And doing the things
that seem pleasant to you
It's enjoying those
marvellous little surprises
That come from all over,
in all shapes and sizes -
a phone call or letter
that brings you delight,
warm wishes and greetings
from morning till night -
It's making a wish
as you blow candles out
And having so much
to be happy about
That you can't help but dream,
as the hours slip away,
Of many more happy
returns of the day.

Hi there BIS
The central California weather was warm; I spent some time out enjoying the last days of summer.
Hope they contain the fires in southern California soon.

Hello everyone. I don't have time right now to read the entire thread, but wanted to let my poetry and potpourri friends know that I am back from my week at the ranch. I sure missed you all, and I sure am far behind! I don't know that I will ever catch up.
I will try to get back here and read some of the poetry. 'Til then, here are some flowers for your lovely thread, Amy.
