Notes About The Poem

Yesterday I posted a poem about the negative side I experienced on soup in my early days, today my poem is completely the opposite and  is a tribute to a very special super souper. 5/3/25

A Tribute to Lin Lane

Lucky me for having Lin in my life for nearly a decade
I've had her friendship, loyalty and unwavering support
Never has there been an inkling of cross words between us
 
Lin is an amazing poet and her paintings are beautiful
Always ready to offer her time and assistance to others
Nothing is too troublesome for her when someone is in need
Editor of both my books; for her patience, I'm ever grateful.

Jan, aren't we all lucky to have Lin here to amuse us and help us? She is really special and you are very kind to give her some well-deserved praise. Very sweet and makes me smile too! It's amazing how a web site with poets sending each other messages can be such a mood enhancer. It means we're having FUN!! That is such a great thing!

What a smiley face you have me wearing, Jan. ;-) You've always been my shoulder as much as I've been yours. "Thank you" seems far short of what I'm feeling, so I'll send you a big hug for your kindness, and to everyone who has commented. You know I love you.

Thanks for dropping by Tom, the poem yesterday and today are such contrasts I wanted to add some balance by doing a positive poem after the negative one yesterday! hugs Jan xx
