Notes About The Poem

Let Us Celebrate

Here lies before you a plate. With my tasty birthday cake. To share with special you! So grateful to still be alive! With friends who give me no jive. Just joy and soulful peace. Still, much to learn Gardenia-scented, midnight oil to burn. My soul speaks, with no surcease. Enjoy the cake! Panagiota 3/13/2023

Oh, Paula, I just knew somehow you loved chocolate? Late, Paula? Let me tell you, is far better than being ignored by “best” friends here. You just inscribed your name on my heart. Plenty here loathe me. That’s OK…God sees it. I have not been feeling wel, either. Plenty to post,, but what for? Love and thanks Pangie

God bless you faithful friend! Many more?-)) don’t know about that one but I am here for today, Thank you for not letting me give up. There’s a phrase I know that is valuable, “Principles over personalities are primary” .Was just reading poetry by WH Auden, I would describe him as a man with his feet on the ground. I hope to write like him, I have no desire to avoid reality.that involves love, pain or freedom Enjoy the cake. Panagiota

Yes, I am a wonderful poet. Just simple, and honest, Hardly popular, rarely loved, definitely not great,not best, No dream to be Queen of the Hill” ….just to love life, and expose villains in this world. And improve my poetic skills. To seek approval is madness! My former husband taught me that. The best thing I ever learned. We are not sides of beef who need group approval to succeed.. indiduals do. Not who you follow
