| Topic: A toast to all the poets | |

I read a poem written by iam4u and quite agreed with him, we need to show encouragement to our new poets ( and to the "oldies" too) So once again, I am posting this.... Here's to your poetic inspirations ! Words, the tools that brought them all together Sharing tomes and verses relentlessly A variation of souls,they flock like birds of a feather. We've had poems that made us laugh and cry and some that have left us with a sigh Whimsical fantasies have graced these pages There are so many wonderful writers whose offerings has had us all enthralled for ages A journey to the milky way via some of our poets pens Even held stars in our hands,played with childhood memories and made friends Their imaginations have made us take steps into the unknown And we've watched as the talents of others have grown They've reached across culture's great divide by throwing out an open invitation for all to step inside We've shared their world and inner thoughts So much happiness their rhymes have brought We have had the pleasure to share so freely The writings of our poets, shared so merrily To name a single person would be unfair But I do know we all have our favourites,I do declare Isn't it wonderfuly to see words that appeal to all? Some have spoken of winter,summer spring and fall Others have written of loves' first stirring There's even been a few that have told of passion........very daring Marriages, births and yes, some have spoken of death And still their words keep coming,there is still a ton to come, yet A toast as well to all the readers of this forum and to others who have posted quotes of decorum Yes, I do believe in giving credit where it is due So now I make use of the opportunity and this I will do To the men and women who pen words of enjoyment Here's to your talents,your words have been well spent. Oh my lovely friend Once again wielding her pen In grace.... Thank you Bonny ~ 
Ms Wiz, a lady who makes this forum ( at times I need to have a cold shower) but that is the joy of poetry............... Expression,expression,expression. My thanks to you for keeping the place alive.

My God, that is awful news for those involved, I hope the fire services and others have managed to evacuate residents from the area. |

In Victoria, they have an Early evacuation, or stay and defend policy... rural towns are really on their own initially... and people have to be smart... what most don't realise is the weather last saturday, and the week before that was never before recorded 46 plus degrees celcius... and 120 km winds... on drought affected state forests.... no-one could have predicted what happened... no-one could have done a damn thing differently. |

This sounds grave, I saw on the news the United States has sent fire fighters and experts from Indonesia has also arrived. I hope this helps (praying for them all the while) |
