It's my anniversary, dont I get flowers or something?

A note of thanks to those who've helped me.

It's been 2 whole years today that I joined this site.

I can say without hesitation,

I have grown so much in this time.

 

Doesn't Kevin send something wonderful, a cute puppy?

?lol

Much heartfelt thanks to those who've taken the time

(and I know-some of you are still taking time)

to teach me how to express myself.

 

Before then, I'd never in a million years

have thought I could write something interesting.

 

I hid behind a silly name,

and a silly avatar (three little flowers),

because I was so bashful, and scared.

 

And now, I feel my writing is as important to me now as breathing.

The friends I've made here are as important in real life,

as anything else.

 

So in short, thank you, and I love you all

    I was just the opposite. I joined long before I ever became really active.

    Wonderful

    Like many or most of us, we take a chance and find out that perhaps we can do it and eventually learn to not be so affraid. Writing is such a wonderful way to learn that the only way to get better and better is to take that risk, make the mistakes and thank those who read ones work for the time they take to let you know their thoughts. Well done for growing, and what a beautiful person you grew into

          my daughters say that
          have I ever sang Maura's song to you?

          ketchup can go with french fries, french fries, french fries
          ketchup can go with french fries, french fries, french fries

          and that's good to eat!!!

            Hahaha. Great song. So true!

            "Hamanah nana,
            we ate bananas,
            wait til mama was sound asleep
            and then we were a-creep
            knocking boots and the floor
            and yelling at the dj to turn it up more."


            Sing it when mama is falling asleep so she wakes up singing:

            "hamama nana
            i is a banana."

            It is funny when she wakes up groggy singing it and not realizing she is.

    Woo Hoo~

    Happy Anniversary!!


    and what a Transitional Poet You are Beautiful One
    You have shown to those who are still trying to find what he or she has lost or hidden or simply unable to maintain
    a reason to hang in there and dance with their quill- ink will spill
    eventually- not to give up when the going gets rough
    From Your first word here on AP- first poem...
    You taught us something-...
    As I see it- You are adding to the Wealth of Words
    from Your vault
    Like CPR to the many who get choked up-
    unable to breathe within his or her Life...
    You provide that extra essence
    Best Wishes Precious Spirit and Wahoooooo
    Partay Onnnnnnnnnnnnn~
    Love You for ALL You do and More...
    Woot
