You let me search my heart and my soul
To write of emotions within me, that I hold.
I have a friend in you, a confidante
It’s always your shoulder I seek, I want.
With patience, you have heard me rant
I seek the happiness, the peace you grant.
My writing has become my voice
That was once silent, but now has a choice.
The poetry I read here, fires my creativity
Gentle criticism soothes my sensitivity.
Some very beautiful friendships I have made
Lasting emotions that will never fade.
What I write comes straight from the heart
even the mistakes, unknowingly, on my part
But you have been patient, helped me learn
The warmth at WordPress, I will always yearn.
How are you feeling now?

I was just going to stop by and say “Thanks” for saying what I am sure so many of use have mused, perhaps privately and not so well said publicly by you, and then I got caught up in reading the commentary again…and again…and must say what a wonderful sparkplug you give to so many voices, Yassy. This grin I get from your work – and some few others, mostly in memory long cherished – actually hurts my cheeks it is so wide and long-lived. Again, dear one, mil gracias!

Missed talking to you, are you so busy cooking. Keep a chair for me, tell the missus. I think WordPress has been enriched with folks like you. Are you still cooking. Hang out with me for a while

No missus, Yassy: the pair I had asked – thankfully we both times decided to decline – lies told and lived from both sides spoiled that brew. I come down to the civic/senior center or the town library to get on-line and commit WP and Twitter and FB and emails and such, my own ‘puter(s) too young to expose to the WWW. I have a quacamole and refried black (and pinto) bean mix with diced grape tomatoes, jalapenos, Mexican air-dried chorizo sausages minced, shallots and red onions with garlic chives and cilantro (and maybe some cuulantro as well) in both with my own cut-into-triangles cornmeal tortillas – so I can control the salt content – for dipping with a couple of beers just for slake’s sake. Miss hanging with you, three! I’ve got a half-hour on the library time…soon the biblioteca will be operating Sundays and I will endure the coming rennovation at the civic/senior center – but not enough to drive me to on-line my poor work-puter. A very Merry (and Happy) Christmas to you, dear Yassy!

Even in pain, but especially in great joy (and is there any other kind?) merry is a word for world.

The previous clangs away at her English/Library Science(?) PhD, also at Indiana whilst persuing her mideival lit love. And from you, I get a pal who pushes and pulls and evokes and emits and like the Bruce Jewett we both know through this medium I yet may say to you both: thank you dear ones for reminding me of the same things: laughs left on soft untrod scenes are equal at least to joy’s undry rivulets and perhaps both are the same thing after all.
