HAPPY BIRTHDAY SILENT ONE! A tribute written using your quotes,to you,my partner in poetry, for guiding me poetically and beyond for so many years, thank you for everything you are!

Birds care not for whom they sing, as beneath skies of flickering flowers and diamond dews~ we follow merlot wine rays.. For between steel dusk and bronze dawn, where shadows of silent sonnets flow we are all petals of imperfection sharing the same sun glazed in honeyed hope~ that floats from purple hued pansies to~ ebony buds, wrapped in lilac love and wisteria warmth, like a blue bouquet of, blissful butterflies fluttering inked~ poetry to the stars and soul of the rose moon, mirroring his selfless silhouette forever calming the freckled ripples of grieving seas, tonight my heart knits rhymeless pleas in saffron syllables, wishing his gemini garden will glow and thrive…

Dear Empress, this is indeed a lovely tribute to Silent One. You two bewitch and gladden poetry lovers with your unparalleled poetic prowess. It is natural for you to have a mutual admiration. I am happy that I too am a weed in the Gemini Garden born on 16th June. Wish Silent One a Happy Birthday and Empress a special thanks for honoring a talented poet using his own words.

Dearest Inky, a beautiful poem for a truly beautiful Soul. Silent One's presence and encouragement on Poetry Soup were not just appreciated, but they left an indelible mark on many of us new poets when we first joined. He was kind and I'm sure he cringed at some of my early attempts but he always told me I could do better. Happy Birthday Silent One. You're always appreciated...Hugs

Yours is a positive energy like no others Empress, your poetry has awakened something inside of me and I've learned so much from you and Silent One. I strive to use colorful imagery. I've grown numb perhaps even callous from love's unrelenting fickle passionate dance. Metaphors are difficult. I hope one day to open up these unexplored arenas within me. Happy Birthday Silent One, enjoy the most beautiful tribute from our Ink! xo

My sweet Ink.. I don't think anyone has ever made this fuss about me on my birthday... You always know how to make it that extra bit special, even though you know i dont really celebrate... I will overcome the embarrassment of all the attention and take all the blessings and love you offer me with upmost gratitude.. Thank you for being a special and wonderful friend in the last few years, not sure what I would do without you.. sometimes... Thanks my little Kundalini...
