Delta come join us! Don't pass up a grouphug
Daf, you're just in time. It's a 24 hour lovefest and the party doesn't even start until Jer gets here.
"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.
The whole of this - Haunted's poem and everyone's response - is wonderful! Makes one doubt the virtualness of this virtual community.
It's so true, the friendship I made here are totally real to me.
And you Prince, you are the poet next door, I look for you every day as you make the rounds from thread to thread. I was waiting for you, thanks for stopping in!

You lot aren't just names on a screen, in my 'umble opinion. You are as real as everybody else, but in some ways more special because of the distances involved. This is my passport to Australians, New Yorkers, Canadians...... and even Jerry!!! It is as real as anything else. End of serious bit. (Except about jerry!) *Shuts up*

My Work Has Been Spread Over Many Fields!
this is such
a great poem
who could imagine
that writing simple
sentimental sentences
broken with line breaks
and stanzas
could result in
a work of absolute genius
such as this
this is just as moving
as when I woke this morning
to my alarm clock beeping.
And I feel the same degree of appreciation
for you,
But I got to work anyhow.
Thanks for that.
This is as wonderful as
a greeting card
and just as original.
You have met our standards.
Congratulations!
I feel the same way too Daf, it's truly more special — I share more with you guys here. I mean, if I show my stuff to people "out there" they would actually think my writing is trashy![]()

No way!

Scrreeeeeechhh. Jerry pulls up to the love parade with flowers in his hair, hold on that dont work, flowers behind his ears. kaftan afflowing looking for one of these group hugs. 'Nice work on the Mary Ode, Haunted.'
And, you lot, never, has so much secret love and respect been so badly kept secret.
(grabs a screwdriver and shmooozes about a bit). Any nibbles ? Im starving here!

none will suffice.
'Ere, 'ave a Watney's Party Seven! By the way, this screwdriver.... what were you going to do, check the plugs? Mend the fridge?

What was that quote about a certain public figure? "Like being savaged by a dead sheep". Ho hum!
