What a sweet way to celebrate all our FanStory friends and get our brains working to figure out who's who. Several clever clues here to ponder. You've done a wonderful job! And thank you for being such a generous and cheerful friend, Debi!

Hey Gail, did you find your spot in this? I hope you didn't mind but even tho it says you have been here since 2010, your portfolio tells me you're new this year. And I have become so close to a few of you, so I didn't want to leave you girls out so I put you and Nicki B and Katie together where it talks about being new and how well you have mixed with us already. I hope you know that I meant it as a big compliment as I did leave some longer timed members out. Thanks for being so special. Lotsa love, Debi

I did, thanks so much for including me!

What a lovely poem for so many you have come to know at FanStory. This just shows your loving heart for so many. No wonder people love you and are drawn to your poems. I didn't know them all--but some. Hugs to you!

Verna, you are in there and have a very special part, but I am not going to lie to you. This happened to me on two different poems in the last two days. One was I had corrected a mistake I made in Aussie's birthday poem that she wanted again and it did not save. Also I had you in a line that I never went back to check and when you didn't mention your part, I went and looked and it wasn't there. I was so mad, so now it is and it is saved. I am sorry about that but never again will I edit or change something and not check it right away. I couldn't leave you out as you are one of my favorite people. Will you please look at least, as my heart was truly in the right place. Thanks so much for your kind comments too. Love ya, Debi

Comment from LJbutterfly
Of all the great poets on this site, you are the only one who could so masterfully pay tribute to so many writers. Yesterday was Thank You Day, but today I want to say thank you for all of the good cheer you add to this site. This poem, not only demonstrates how talented you are, it also shows how many friends you have and how many people love you. This poem put a big smile on my face as I guessed who you were writing about, but you should have seen my eyes light up when I read the word "butterfly."
You are a rare inspiration, because I know you deal with a lot of physical challenges on a daily basis, but you continue to recognize others. My thoughts and prayers are with you always.

Aw baby sis, you know I recognized myself right away. I don't think there is another here who qualifies as your BBBB. If there is we will have to go head to head to see who best qualifies. Love you baby sis, and your poem is quite awesome. With all due respect to all the writers on this site. I do not believe that anyone comes near to matching your skill at writing tributes. Like Tin Turner once sang, You are, "Simply The Best!"

I have been so worried about you and have been wondering how you are doing? Also I have been praying all the time for you. Please let me know if you are up to it. I am sure you are overwhelmed with so much love and cares from so many. But of course, that is a good thing. It leaves you with not as much time to think.
And thanks for all the kind words for this poem. I was hoping that maybe that line would show you how much your brotherhood has meant to me since I have been here. If I remember right, we felt that from the beginning. I am so blessed to have an extra brother like you, since I lost my oldest 43 and youngest 47 way too soon. So as much as it isn't the same as what you have been through, I do understand the sorrow.
That is maybe why God led us to that relationship here. I know He led me here to be a blessing to others, but I am the one who's been blessed. So thank you for your part in that.
Take care of yourself, my BBBB and I will be in touch soon.
Much Love, Debi.
Thanks too for the honor of the six stars!!

You are so welcome. I bless the day we met. It is one I will never forget and one I will always treasure.
Comment from Patty Mazzurco
This feels like a big, warm thank you to everyone in your life, and the guessing game adds such a playful touch. Even though I might not know all the people you're talking about, the way you describe each one with such affection makes it feel so heartfelt. The little details, like "he looks like a big ape" or "she keeps me on my toes," made me smile and shows how much you appreciate each person. such a sweet way to celebrate friendship...

Well Patty, as far as I am concerned you are very much a part of this poem. On July 21, you posted your first poem in ten years so that qualifies you as one of those new girls. (At least to me) LOL, yet, you already know all the tricks and you are so much a good friend to me. So I thank you with all my heart for all the lovely reviews you have given me. Each one has always made me feel so good.
Thanks for your always kind words and for your friendship, Patty. That means a lot to me. Love, Debi
Comment from jim vecchio
I have an idea about some of the names, but not all. I do say in haste and in truth, "Beautifully written". Though it's a day late, I say, "Thank You" for these "Thank Yous".

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Lovely artwork and nice presentation, Debi.
-Right now writing that makes me smile
because I think that is the line about me in your poem.
-You do a good job and the poem flows effortlessly
from line to line as you describe special friends.
-Not only do you come up with aspects of each
friend, but you do it with rhyme.
-In addition to that, you have
a very good opening and closing verse.
-Thanks for sharing everything about friends and friendship.
-I'm happy to call you my friend,
And your poems I highly recommend!

Hi Pam, and I wasn't sure how to explain you that others might know you too. That is why I used your opening line. I wish I had a whole paragraph to tell about what a beautiful woman you are, inside and out.
And thanks so much for the very kind comments for my thank you poem to you. BTW, I loved your final line. That means a lot to me.
I appreciate you and your friendship so very much.
Love, Debi

I appreciate your reply very much, Debi. How many are getting their descriptions right? You are very welcome for the stars and review. I am glad you liked the last line, and I appreciate your friendship, too. You are a bright ray of hope on FanStory.

This is an excellent piece, Debi, I don't think we say thank you for the things we have often enough, I would have had no idea that it was national thank you day had it not been for your poem. An excellent piece, I enjoyed reading it.
