Notes About The Poem
http://www.games.com/

Gwen

A sweet poetess named Gwen
is like the Soup's mother hen.
I think she must never tire,
always here giving words to inspire!


Does anyone remember the sweetie, Gwendolen?
I wrote this for her a few years ago but she has
been gone almost two years now. Sure miss her!!

YOU DID NOT WRITE ONE ABOUT ME??...oh my word, I didn't know bc I have been working so much and missed your loving tribute here! (Teardrop teardrop ....drip drop drip drop...for your kindness)! I actually do tire, Andrea..I came home from work this morning and my spouse was laughing at me bc I slept in my work clothes..I think I even had my work badge on...Glad he didn't photograph the funny scene!... I love you and your big big heart!!...

Our Gwennie will get a charge out of this Andrea; she is indeed a treasure for our Soup buddies. You penned it perfectly! Luv, Lizzie

Such a wonderful Clerihew that you have penned in honor of Gwen..I enjoy reading her work..If for a contest, reads like a winner to me..Good luck..Thanks for stopping by..Yes, we were under tornado watch all of yesterday..There was tornado activity in Alabama yesterday and the systems that go in that area usually come over to us but as far as I know our area was spared this time..We usually have tornados more into spring, some summer, and again in the fall..Usually season changings..Sara

I love this "Hew" chain Andrea! This one will probably put a smile on Gwen's face. BTW, I edited my entry "Glorifying You" Thanks for all your suggestion. I love you for it! I love reading, and it has improved my English a lot. I still lapsed on my grammar sometimes when I am not focused. Please soup mail me if you think there's something I overlook, or something look vague. I can edit good actually. Love Dalila
