For Lindsay Laurie

Lindsay dear friend are you OK,
Australia is a long way away,
I’ll gladly paddle right across the pond,
If with a poem you soon don’t respond!

This is such a sweet note to tell our friend he has been missed, especially by you. You are a good friend Jennifer and we would miss you terribly if you weren't around. God Bless, JB

Hi Jennifer, I see that Lindsay has posted 3 poems since you wrote this. Sometimes we're on pins and needles if we don't hear from a friend in a while, but always such a relief when we find out they are okay, just busy. I echo the thoughts of all the commenters below, that you are such a caring and thoughtful friend to have. Blessings and hugs ~ John

You have such a caring heart Jennifer - a beautiful friend indeed! Was so happy to see that Lindsey responded. Whew! Lindsey's response is truly a statement of the responsibility we take on as members of the soup - to read and respond. That takes bunches of time - a delicate balancing act between priorities - 'riting, reading and responding! Caring for one another. Sending you bunches of blessings dear friend! Hope you are well.

So you see, she responded. Now my last Tetractys was a disaster. Oh well you can't win them all. Hugs.

Hi Jennifer - Your concern for Lindsay is so well-taken. Lindsay has been commenting regularly on my poems, so as far as I know, she is fine.

Hello Jennifer ... thank you for your concern Jennifer. Yes I'm okay, but I've been playing catch up by reading and commenting on as many fine poems as I can so very soon I'll be posting again - once again Jennifer; I feel quite humble just now - Lindsay
