A Toast To Scorpios!

Scorpios are known for their passion
Their resourcefulness and compassion
Since a Scorpio I is
Here's a toast with sloe gin fizz
May our traits always be in fashion

Robert, sometimes you guys get too intense. My best friend was double scorpio (both moon and sun) and she got really angry over some little thing I did and disowned me as her friend!!(after 10 yrs best friend) you would not believe what got her upset. anyway, I have two other really good friends since high school, both Scorpios, just not double ones. Also my hubbie is cancer/with scorpio moon. I seem to do really well with Scorpios! Good poem. Andrea

Now this is a cutie, Bob. Still fighting computer problems. I finally decided to dig out my computer room and give the excess to the new school our church is building so I have added that to my schedules. Happy Birthday in the mean time. God Bless, Cile
