Notes About The Poem

Anaya

Anaya writes the greatest stanza
and she’s won many a bonanza
	my link to her is broken
	with PS I have spoken
It’s hard for me to understanza!

Every comment that I write
is always met without delight
	desirous that she knows
	my admiration flows
my lack of comment is no slight.

It’s been several months now
but on and on I will plow
	I will never give up
	I will keep trying, yup
PS may yet deliver the cow.
	
So Anaya if you read this
please know that I am not remiss
	if ever I get through
	and post a note to you
hope I get a hit, not a miss!

The dreaded message with which I am now so familiar:

I am sure Anaya feels honored. So this inability to get connected has become a blessing in disguise. Friendship matters and your effort to get connected with a friend is much appreciated. Linda, Congratulations on your POTD

Hi Linda, "it’s hard for me to understanza," just how technology really works ! Beyond that, I *completely understand* your words. This is such a cute and clever way of reaching out to Anaya. (I can see that she has responded). My heart is smiling. Congratulations my dear friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Brandy

Good choice for POTD, Linda. It would appear that any number of us here on PS are experiencing email delivery problems. Mine are very erratic. Hopefully the problem will be resolved soon, and your Anaya link will be restored.

System 500 is a George-Soros financed plot to turn Poetry Soup into a bunch of flaming _____________ (fill-in-the-blank). lol. Good luck, Linda!

Interesting, as I did give up trying to comment on Anaya's poetry, as it would just time-out on me, so congratulations on your tenacity! Aloha!

Aw, that is the cutest picture of me. Linda I just love the limericks, I'm faving it! I am sorry you're having the issue, so I am here and reading, and I love it so much! Your Limericks are ever so clever, your poetry is amazing, and I am honored to read it. Sorry I haven't come by lately! I'll investigate ~Anaya :) soupmail*
