I'm using my one hundredth post to send you all a rose
To all of my dear friends; each day more friendship grows
This lovely writing family; I'm so happy that I chose
The feeling that I have for you; I'm praying that it shows
I'd like to raise my glass to you and make a cherished toast
This may be a milestone, but more than just a post
My way of saying thank you to my friends and to our host
I see your souls so vividly; you're lovelier than most
If I could make a speech for you, I fear I'd never quit
There's no one I could stand to miss, not even for a bit
Some are kind, some are sweet and others have such wit
You're like a Worldwide puzzle; I'm so thankful that I fit
…………………………………………………………………………
(Special recognition for a few that go the extra mile)
I truly thank you Margaret; you're there for me each day
I also thank you Helen for the prayers you send my way
Gary for your friendship and your awesome interview
I'm sure without you Terry, I just wouldn't have a clue
My friend and brother Nomi for the soon upcoming favor
Karenina, for your kindness and the friendship that I savor
So honored by the gifts Sally; they really were the best
We'll celebrate together Pam; this birthday and the rest
And Jan you are so helpful, I'm so happy you're a friend
I wish I could keep going, but this poem would never end
