I really like Tuesdays, normally.
You see, it's the day I go to the open mic and read my poetry.

The only problem is that by the time I get home, all the major threads and their posters are well matured, and everyone is gone!

:cry:

I need a hug...

3. Here 's the two poems I read tonight...
Very silly, both of them...

I like poetry!
I love the way the words
Dissolve on your tongue
The way a snowflake
Melts
Leaving only a memory

But the words stay
Inside your mind

They always
Affect you

Even though the snowflake
Is gone
You still taste it.

*****************************************************************************************

All is well with me today
Because my friend
Took my sorrow and my tears
And blew them all away

He did so gently
And with love
I really can’t stay mad at him
He sees inside my heart
And knows just where to find me

So when I wonder
Just how much he cares
I’ll remember that today
He took my tears
And changed them into laughter

7. I appreciate it!
Funny, the crowd tonight seemed, by their applause anyway, to like the second one better...

Who knows!

Thanks, sweetie!

4. Well, I'm not a hugger, but just to veer totally off on a tangent, your heart avatar
kind of looks like a stained-glass lion head.

5. My dear qnr!
Why, thank you! It does, rather, now that you mention it...

And I do love stained glass...

Your comment is as good as a hug...

:hug:
