Our Neo forest nymph

Rolling laughter & chuckles my dear one, how could I not, you threw down the gauntlet (more laughter) with your lovely poem for me. I think we need not fret what anyone should think, surely folk on this site are bigger than to find petty insult in such a fun inspired piece... Here you see the wicked me returning to the screen, with heart more healed, now cheek revealed, some inner truths come clean for you dear Ann of Norway, so helped to soothe my bruises I had to do an ode to you, apologies if it confuses Of course I feel for others too, who wove there lovely words & gave me wings with care that sings, these lovely Neo birds Not least I thank Orgami, with my admiration jewelled whose words comes swirling etherly & sent me strength when I felt fooled & Faery Beki, darling thing, I wrote a song or two what a sweet soul, helped make me whole when I felt somewhat blue & later, feathered Geezer came flying in my sky & offered naught but good strong care in rhymes that weave & fly I'd have to mention Stella, & Kristeta in their brilliance whose words gave me respite & kin, strengthened my resilliance & Arrow's wise precision, & poetry of heart such clear & clean ability to transform words to art Barbsdad with his winter words, so cool, they soothed my burns Race9togo with brilliant prose, each one who reads has much to learn Inkdragon, succinct & functional, reached out with steadied hand to tweek the technique fluidly so all may understand Ahh & not the least the vampire girl, Kelsey's firey twirly grace such wisdom & such brilliance in one with such young face Katie, Cathy & Professor all who offered much & Ginny, with such whimsy words sent forth, our hearts to touch Even dear Proprietress though not direct to me her words float on my screen at times & I find harmony I have to go to travel now, but there are more to list how gorgeous, Ann, that we are blessed, & sweetly, wordly kissed! It's my wee thank you, I know it's indulgent, but everyone must know now I am a gusher... I have to be, it's what gives me meaning to find the best in others & acknowledge it & there is so much good here, & I am as I often say, so very grateful... I shall continue the list Monday or Tuesday, gotta drive 3 hours to meet my scientist & his Gautamalan children in the beautiful rocks & forest of Halls gap... I will hug rocks & admire trees & birds for you. xxx PS Ann, your poem in response is brilliant... it seems I am doomed to inspire better poetry in the responses I receive than I post in the first place... & I love it!!!

Hi Bek, I am stuffed, but am determined to catch up before I post any more... I have written a response to your priv post, & will post it shortly, but realised I had not responded to this one... The rocks were not so easily haggable, some, just pull it from you - these were the kind that invited climbing & perching upon mostly... but the waterfall over the huge rock face was extraordinary (you know... I don't think I got a picture of it!!!! Just sat & loved it for ages. Was a good fun day. Yes, yay for gushing - waterfalls of it eh! xxx Anni "Out beyond the ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

Hey gorgeous wampire girl.. HAVE missed you, but completely understand your distraction & seriously admire your dedication & wish to give you all the support in the world with that as well. You do really well with your studies now, & we'll think of some way to reward you for your dedication Kelsey. You are a brilliant, bright star, I'm sure we all want the absolute best for you. By the way, is that Ewok, as in "Chewy"? Thats what we call our dog. & there's a long hostory as well... another day maybe. Good luck with your study girl xxx <3 Anni "Out beyond the ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

Heh, well, it's not so bad if you don't mind being called the polite version of "butt" (over here we refer to that as our "bum") & moreso, over here Fanny can refer to the female genitalia... my beautiful friend Charan just likes to be a subversive thing & still I am known in those circles as Fanni, I love it actually, it's the rebel in ME too, sets up a few snickering cycles at parties etc. though. Sometimes I get "Anni Fanni with the frangipani fanny" chuckle... did I really expose such silliness on this forum... how old am I? Hope your study went well Kelsy was crossing fingies for you. xxx Anni "Out beyond the ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
