Semper Fi Or For Maureen Mcgreavy

by definition
of recognition
always waiting for
her next submission

a risky mission
it's never to late
in my admission to
send in the Maureens

Richard Lamoureux Date: 10/2/2019 9:41:00 AM This is fun. Login to Reply Jeff Connelly Date: 10/2/2019 5:23:00 PM Intended so Richard. Maureen seems to have a witty funny personality. Like some one that you'd like to meet.

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 9/28/2019 8:57:00 AM Love it I do!!! Thank you Jeff. No words, all smiles and lump in the throat. Been kicking an addiction while my hubby away. Tobacco free a week! He's back today from Paris, dance reunion, then I'm to join him for arts high school reunion~ didn't go to my own 2 hs reunions, but going to hs' that I wanted to go to lol Login to Reply Jeff Connelly Date: 10/2/2019 5:29:00 PM I have to admit, before I became vegetarian, I used to trap and hunt. Always ate what I shot, but walking the edge of a local farmer's corn line always brought out in a bolting flash, mourning doves, and yes I shot plenty; but then delved into my own personal philosophy. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 9/28/2019 11:13:00 PM ...started seriously birding when I got my 1st dog, always a bit of a fancier. Became a crazy bird lady. Down to two old doves. I'd like a big fancy pigeon next. Not too fancy. There's some freaky ones. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 9/28/2019 10:57:00 PM I went to uni for art, but dropped out. Had a few shows. Haven't painted in a couple of years. Zany dog portrait commission half done but planning a sculpture, maybe even an urn before I can get back to the painting. Pair of mini schnauzer twins, one pint size runt. Jeff Connelly Date: 9/28/2019 4:33:00 PM I'm happy to read you rid yourself of that addiction Maureen. Wow Maureen seems you have a more then interesting past. Delve deeper. I've never gone to a single school reunion. No one knew me, other then in band. After school I was up in the woods hanging out and bird watching. Future ornothologist I thought, but then I ended up English Lit and music; go figure lol.

P.S. Awtry Date: 9/27/2019 11:27:00 AM very clever! and fitting for our very clever Mo. I think she'll love this :) Login to Reply Jeff Connelly Date: 9/27/2019 12:30:00 PM I hope so Awtry. Maureen was the first person to comment on my poetry seven months or so ago, and she has been supportive and informative helping me. I also believe that her own poetry is simple; which makes it simply amazing. We each have our own way of how we write, so she shouldn't just throw caution to the wind; but I hang on every one of her words... and then wait for more. Thank you Awtry.
