    This is a beautiful Acrostic that shines your light of friendship right through it. You are such a loving and giving person. It has been wonderful to watch you grow as a poet and to produce such wonderful pieces of art. You captured the Acrostic with wonderful rythmn and flow which is not easy to do. I enjoyed reading this!

    You have such a sweet spirit. The few times we have exchanged comments you have been so kind and angelic. Strangers aren't always so kind. You have sent your love beautifully with this acrostic. I see you are very good with them.

    Can you fed-ex this package to my house so I can open it up and receive all those . My Aussie , even if it doesn't come Fed Ex, I felt everyone one of them while I was reading your beautiful acrostic penned. It is a bright sunny (but cold day) and I am preparing for the celebrations tonight where my friends will be joining and kidnapping me for something eventful this evening, I never know, every year it has been different. Personally, I think that is the reason for my depression, living so long on the daily basis that mortality is my reality. It's a hole that once you get swallowed up into, is difficult to get out, but with support like this, I must gather the strength to continue on, which as you know, I always meet the challenge, some days is more difficult than others. my sweet sister and I'll try and come back on tomorrow. Gregg

    Dear Joan,
    This is surely the best birthday present anyone could send or receive, an avowal of true friendship and love, given in the way only you, with your huge heart, can give it.
    I add my own best wishes to yours and my prayers to you Gregg for a release from your pain so that you can enjoy a happy celebration with your friends up there.
    I wish I could be with you all. Enjoy. Applause to Joan with love and hugs,
    Love and best wishesd to my buddy, Our Mutual Friend.
