Share Your Love

Hi All,

I just logged on to find one of our very own,
Earthstar lost her husband on Monday...5-12.

She is not gonna be on as much as she would like.

What I want from you, is Poems of love, inspiration and thoughts for her.

Brenda is a wonderful lady who just gives to all. She struggles with her writing sometimes, but she is very loving and caring!

Rules:


No Erotic. This is not the place for it

No Bashing

No weird typing... Keep it clean and neat.

No swearing

No cutting, or any depressing reads, we want to show her love and kindness right now.

Have fun...

Line limit... 30-45

I have the right to DQ any pieces that I deem inappropriate for this contest.

Lets Spread our love where it is needed...


Thank you to all that have
donated points for this contest:

Lilac Th0ughts
Tawk

Your gifts are much appreciated.

    This sounds like a fine contest to me -

    and one where a shiny Trophy or extra points are really secondary - as to comfort someone in their time of need is a wonderful gift, indeed - that comes with it's own rewards of compassion and friendship! I've bookmarked this contest, my friend - and will see what I can come up with for it before it comes to an end!
    Peace & Love!
    Earl.

    Aww! I'm so sorry to hear about her loss. Losing someone so special to you is very tough..I would know. I feel very sorry for her family and friends, so I will try to write a beautiful poem in memory and in honour of her Husband. I think she would like that...I think he would too!

    Twinsy I don't think I know Brenda,
    but if she is a friend of yours then she must
    be very special. So I'll put my thinking cap
    on and I'll be back with something.

    Your Loving Twin
