You all have been like a well
from which I draw sustenence
how can I tell you with any sense
the way you make me feel~your
comments are so incredibly divine
I can't believe it's work of mine
yet every poem I write~your reviews
make me the recipient of good news
Reading your work every day~gives
me a way~to get through the routine
of life~ whether boring or hectic~I'm
glad to have such an eclectic group of
friends in the den~to read and admire
to learn and aspire~to set me on fire
so thank you each and every one~ i'll
thank you til my day is done~and each
new one ~when it's begun;-)

Soon the winds of March
Will play games of tag with us
And it always wins
Poets love the wind
Try to grasp its mystery
To write cryptic verse
The nature poet
Rides the wind of fantasy
To look for magic

Love from my heart to yours,

"Family" is what this Den is all about, a place where poets can be poets.
Wonderful.

It's been a long journey, but I still remember you taking me under your wing when I first came here, with several others as well and made me feel at home and like I had found a place of R&R, where I could lounge around all day if I wanted, without any pressure to even pick up after myself.
It's always been a joy to be here in the Den with you, reading your timeless writes and heart touching poetry. I too am humbled by your appreciation and thanks when in all reality it should be us thanking you. Thanking you for allowing us to be a part of your life.
Now I'm going to tell you that I have taken your advice yet once again, and am trying my hand at publishing. I've the feeling though it may turn into more of a war of words between me and myself before it is over and done with, but I'm a bit stubborn and so I think I can overpower the keys on this keyboard after a while and force them into submission, but we'll see how it goes!
Thank you Eileen for always being there, and for the shoves and pushes you have given me over the years..You are a great friend, and I will always believe so.

And that's something you do very well, Tiger Lily - so we should be thanking you. Thanks!

It is I who should be thanking you! You were one of the very first to welcome me with open arms; your constant support and encouragement sustains me and allows me to fly with eagles; your poetry is a force to be reckoned with. You are one of my mentors. So, thank you.
Beautiful, beautiful poem and senryu. BRAVA!
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
And for all of the prayers you've said on Karen's and my behalf, many grateful thanks. :)
Without your words and support, the Den would be a very sad (and boring) place to be. You make the Den shine with your talents and your love for others. God bless you always, and thank you for your prayers, friendship, and love! I happen to think you are a blessing in my life; my life is indeed better because OF you. Very well done poem; brava, Poetry Queen, Diva of the Den!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D
Will let you know how daddy fares tomorrow; thanks for all the prayers for him (and for US!). Stay tuned~
Take care,
Sherry

I am sure there are many of us, including myself, who share your regards and kind thoughts for the fraternity of the Den, we are all one big family, not always agreeing, but managing to get along in diversity of opinions, styles and techniques !
And yes.I deem the readings and reviews of the Den's poets, as an integral and fulfilling part of my life too !
Thank you for the warm sentiments Eileen !
The senorku are intrinsically evocative
