Your birthday card for Linda was great, Debi.
The image was beautiful, too. I liked the color
scheme, the smooth flow of words straight from
your heart, and of course your special form. The
use of the 'L' words worked perfectly. This sounded
great read aloud, and I could imagine you reading it
to Linda. I know she'll treasure it. The last line was
really special--love it.
Thanks for sharing and caring, Jan

Oh Jan, I thank you with all my heart for this lovely review and kind words for Linda's poem. You are so sweet and I appreciate you so very much, my dear friend. But you are so generous with you lovely stars and as much as they are not necessary, I do appreciate you so much! Thanks for being so kind in every way! I am so blessed to have a friend like you!

Hi Debi, Linda is a wonderful woman. I think the following line says it all:

We have your heart; you have our Love!
(Indeed we do; indeed she does.)

Your poem reads and flows well and has good rhyming within.

Of special note:
Happy Birthday Linda!
We think that you're so beautiful

(Her beauty glows around her.)

I love the art graphic. Well done; well said. A pleasure to read. Xo. M

I like how you capitalize all words beginning with L to describe this lovely lady for Illinois. You never fail to disappoint your FS readers with your musical poetry.

Another good birthday promo, Debi. I like your spin with the letter, "L" and its accolades.
I'll have to look at her profile and posts. I'm not familiar with her and in the manner you wrote about her, it seems I'm missing out!
Mia colpa!

Nicely done.
Cheers!
John

You are quite adept at making members feel seen, and appreciated. Rare is the writer who does not seek recognition. Whether we write for acclaim, pay or whatever. We still write and post our writing for some sort of recognition. It is great to be seen. Great job.

Hi Debi, I am truly at a loss for words
my so wonderful friend...

what a beautiful Birthday card...I Thank You so much
for all your kind words...

FanStory is a site for people to come and write their
poetry and stories...to learn more about the different
forms of writing...how to publish books...how to see the world without traveling...

someone on here once told me...this was a site for
writing poems and stories...not to make friends on...
and of course I quickly corrected him...

I'm sure when Tom stared FanStory he had no idea what
a wonderful place it would become...not only a place
to show all the world the talented writers that have
come and gone on here...but a community of amazing
people that have come together as a family...

many have become friends...and have come to love each
other truly in their hearts...some have actually met...
this is a family of the most amazing...caring...wonderful people that I know...and I Thank God everyday for their friendship...
not only is FanStory about our writings...but it overfloods
with love...

Thank You my wonderful friend for this lovely gift...
I love your beautiful card...and loveeeee this picture...
so nicely written from the heart...love much...Linda xxoo

Hi Debi, I could feel every beat of
your heart as I was reading your poem...
as the love in your heart...touched the love
in my heart...

I read it to my daughter...and she said it was beautiful...she loved the words spoken...

after reading your poem...and spending the
last couple days with family and friends...
it was truly an amazing birthday...

I Thank You Debi with all of my heart...
God Bless you my beautiful friend...
love you much girl...Linda xxoo 😘🤗💗🌼🙏

This is such a beautiful poem for Linda, and you're right, she is the loveliest of ladies. She's a friend to everyone, she loves everyone. She is God's warrior, and nothing will take her away from her faith in Him. I love her to bits, she has been my friend for many years now, and helped me through some tough times, even though she is continuously suffering so much pain. She is an Angel. I love your poem and I'm sure she will love it too. Well done, again, Debs. :)) Sandra xx
