Paul Callus Poems

Thank you to a mysterious angel!!

Blog Posted by Paul Callus: 10/14/2016 3:44:00 PM

This is my 2nd blog; the first one, posted over a year ago, was along the same lines as this one!

This week Soup Adm informed me that an anonymous person had gifted me a premium membership. This is such a beautiful surprise, and I have no words by which to thank this 'angel'.

I respect anonymity, but deep down I wish I knew who it was so I could thank him/her personally in private. You can't blame me for sitting down here, tapping my head and raking my brains .

Last year I wrote a short poem dedicated to my anonymous donor; the words can also be applied to the present one. I addressed my angel as 'she'. It is called:

The Gift

She came on tip-toe

in the middle of the night

leaning over me

lightly kissed my dormant face

loving angel's gift bestowed.

THANK YOU!!!

YOU HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART!

Hi Nette:) Although I had received a similar gift over a year ago, it never crossed my mind that my angel would repeat this generous act! I will forever be indebted. Thank you for commenting on my blog:) Hugs // paul

Must be karma, Paul. What a wonderful gift for a wonderful poet and human being. I'm so happy for you. We have all been gifted, as now so many will be touched by all of the beautiful poetry from You, Jan and Alexis.

Your kindness, talent and character shines, thus an angel gifted you a blessing.. Now that makes two such gifts and brings cheer to many more here than just the blessed receivers. Good to see such generosity and honor bestowed upon such talented and nice people! Definitely brightens to day to see such!

I'll give you the same message I gave to Jan. Paul, you've received a generous gift and the donor will be rewarded with each poem written by your hand. You're both kind hearted people and many people here see the goodness in your hearts. ;-)

Paul Callus

October 14, 2016 at 5:28 PM

Someone also sprinkled their magic on me Paul - I awoke this morning to find I have been gifted a lifetime membership! I too wish I knew who I have to thank but respect their anonymity. I hope they read the blogs and see the joy they have given to us:-) After the initial tears of joy I can't wipe the smile off my face:-) hugs Jan xx

I agree Paul and I think the PM fairy has a smile on their face to know the joy they bring to many on soup:-) hugs Jan xx

Paul Callus

October 14, 2016 at 5:23 PM

Hi Jan...I find that there is joy in giving and receiving; donor and recipient are both blessed! Hugs ~ paul
