Happy birthday, KatieMae!
Hi, Debi!
This is another stellar birthday poem. I did not know that much about KatieMae! She sang backup for Paul Anna. Wow.
A wonderful poem, Debi,
Best wishes,
Hugs,
Cindy

Absolutely. As a FanStorian, you are valued. No matter your skill level. One of the best things about this site is that from the most skilled writer to the novice, all are welcome and none are belittled for a lack of talent. Many of us started out needing to be taught. I myself have received a masters level of training since being on here. Some are frustrated because I stick mainly to one style of writing. It is strictly a matter of choice. It is what I enjoy, therefore it is what I do.

Wow, a blizzard on Halloween. It's so early for that, even in MN. I hope you can stay warm, and that your power is on by now. It's nice to learn about another musician on FS. You gave us lots of great info. about KatieMae. I wish her a great birthday, and blessings to you also. Carol

I love knowing all the interesting information you included in KatieMae's birthday poem. The smooth flow of all the lines made your poem even more joyful to read. I now know she is a fellow musician. You piano photo is exquisite.

To Katie: I hope you birthday is filled with peace, joy, and love, and your year filled with all your heart's desires.

I adore this writer and I was unaware she is a musician. Your birthday poem told me so much about her. She is quite the talented lady and I hope her birthday is special and grand. Hope the blizzard you are in passes.

Hi Debi,
This poem rhymes well and tells Katie's story well. She is so multi-talented. It is interested by named after a Grateful Dead song.
I don't think you need the and third line of the penultimate stanza. It should be Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with no 'and'.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Joan

Yes, Joan I know what you are saying, but when you write in meter, you do whatever you have to make the line come through properly. I tried it numerous ways and that was the best that I could find. Do you know what I mean? Thanks for your help tho, normally I would agree but it really would screw everyone up if I left it out would have been two few syllables or put it in another place. Thanks again, Debi

Grateful Dead. Wellbwritten. Love, Brenda.
