-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.

    Did you recognize your part? I hope so as I meant it as a compliment for you.
    And thank you for your kind words but I pray that they didn't offend you at all. I remember when I did your birthday poem you said the reason for your pen name, so I was trying to sweeten it for you. Because you know that I think of you as Jessi-million. And you are sweet as apple pie. Even sweeter!!
    Thanks so much. Much love, Debi

    I didn't recognize my part! I'm flattered to be included, though. :)
reply by the author on 15-Sep-2024
    It says something about your pen name shows your confidence, though sweet as apple pie. I think that is how it goes.

I did pick a few with those generous clues you left, but I think you're probably everyone's friend dear Debi, how could we feel anything because of the kind and generous things you say about us, you see us through God's eyes I'm sure, He has high expectations, and looks through those eyes, beautifully written Debi, blessings Roy

    Ooh, thanks Roy,
    I appreciate you so very much, and am sure you saw your line. I hope you know the next line was not yours. In fact it belongs to Bill, if you can imagine that? Haha.
    Thanks for the compliments and such kindness. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
    Love, Debi

    Hi Katie, you are included in this and for all the ones I had to leave out Ihope you know that I meant it as a compliment to you and Nicki. It is the part about, there are some ladies new this year,,how fast they learned to mix. That meant a lot to get you in there. You both mean a lot to me.

    So I hope you know I consider you a very good friend. Thanks for the kind comments. Debi

    LOL, Valda, I know so little about pearls, but I do know about ours. She is lovely and rare as they come. So whether they are found on the beach or in the ocean, I am so glad that I always know where to find you. Right here!!

    Thanks for being such a special friend to me. You are so very sweet.
    Much love, and thanks for your kind comments and the six stars. You are so special. Debi

I think I have most of them identified, but then again, I may be completely wrong. We have a very talented bunch of misfits here and I love them all. Thank you, our special angel for this wonderful thank you.

    I hope you found which one was yours. I struggled with you. I wanted to say,
    She always calls me Angel in each one of my reviews. But then I thought that might sound like I was bragging, so I wrote another truth is you are the loveliest woman when you write my review. That is you, all you. Unless I turn that around on you and call you the Angel. I think that is what I will do. Check in about 15 minutes. Thanks sweetie. Love ya, Debi

    You're so sweet. I wish we could bottle up your angelicness, it' now a word, and sprinkle it over society. We would live in a much beter place.

I see you posted this around midnight but I was sound asleep after working a 12 hour day. But I'm here now, on my lunch break and I just read your national thank you day poem. What a way to recognize your friends on the site.

I was able to pick out a bunch;
What time are you coming for lunch?
See I read it through and got my clue,
I got it without even a hunch.

Great read...
love ya sis.
Cheers,
John

    Dang, John, now I am very worried that my job as a poet is in trouble. That was pretty darn good! I have been losing my muse since this eye thing so I looked for National days to help me through, and this inspired me to use it as a friend thank you. After all, I look forward to all of you (a few more than others) but after I started I realized that I needed to cover my butt to make sure I didn't miss anyone. So thanks for being one of the very special friends and now more like a brother. So I will be there as soon as I can hop a plane and get there. Maybe by 2:00. LOL. Thanks a lot as I worried you might be upset with me for inviting the whole gang. hehe! Love and hugs. Debi

Hi Debi, Wow. So many of your friendly reviewers are including in your poem. I don't know how you do it?! Amazing. This is a lovely tribute to your FS friends. Thank you for the shout out. I did recognize many of our authors. Enjoy your day. I do have an expression ...

    Yes, my MVP, you are special. I love that you came with that great reaction.
    You truly are my SOTU. And I love that you made your own message to share with me. You are right, you can never be too loved, and that you are.

    Thanks Sweetie, for the fun and kind comments and also for the lovely six stars. You really are the greatest. Our dads would be proud of us, wouldn't they? (Big Smile). Much Love, Debi

    Hi Jake, and did you pick out the line I wrote for you? It was the one about the blog. Yes, my friend, of course you got your own and were not one of the general ones at the end. So thank you for your friendship and for the reviews. I meant every word to all of you, my friends. Love, Debi
