    Oh, Deanna, I am so happy that you finally saw your poem and that you like it. I had written to you the same day that you let me know what was going on. In case you didn't see that pm.
    I had felt bad so I wrote your poem yet that night and wrote quite a few messages after to tell you. But you couldn't have known since you thought I had to know by Wed.

    All that matters is that you saw it now and I am so happy that you got it. I have a link at the bottom of this message that if you want to send it to your friends or anyone all they have to do is copy and paste it to your search engine and it will take right to the poem here for them to see it how it is displayed here.

    Also, make sure you look at all the reviews and the cool wishes you had from people. You will find them if you click on "view ratings" at the bottom of the poem. You maybe knew that. LOL. But just in case. ..... Thanks again for coming back and I sure hope you are here to stay, dear friend.
    Love, Debi

Debi! How awesome is this very special display of gratitude and admiration for another human being! Your acknowledgement of her amazing talents and passion for joy in her life surely must give her recognition to how blessed not only she is, but to all who know her, equally blessed as well! Very nice writing, indeed! Thank you!

    Hi again Sue, how kind of you to review one of our member's birthday poems. I appreciate all of your very kind comments and I thank you for stopping in. I will look you up to within a few days too. Funny we have not met before. Thanks again, my friend. Debi

Hi Debi,
I've never run into 11:17 (Deanna) yet. How will I find her... 11:17 or Deanna?
Back in 2012 or 2013 (I forget), I entered the WFNB yearly competition. I only tried it once before. Anyway, I entered a few of my children's poems, and I was one of three finalists. One of the other two finalists was a belly dancer! She didn't perform for us, but she did show us some pictures.
You've written a good biography for her, with perfect meter a great rhymes. I'm sure she'll appreciate your talent.
Thanks for the introduction, and now I'll wait for the dance to begin.
Happy Birthday, Deanna!
Hugs,
Kimbob

    The same lady, Kimbob. She is just a very busy woman and has had a lot going on. So you can find her by 11:17. She is pretty cool and I know she will appreciate your kind words just as I do, my awesome friend.

    Good Morning, Debi
    Just wondering~ do you look her up under the "E" (for eleven) or where else?

This is an interesting poetic way to describe a talented writer here. Nice illustration choice, too. You are one of the few people here who really know people more personally in spite of long distances. Great share.

What an amazing array of talents your birthday "girl" displays. I identified With her because I was a middle school English teacher for many years, as well as high school. However, no one would want to see me belly dance! I hope she had a happy birthday.

Very nice artwork and presentation, Debi. You do a good job introducing us to Deanna and sharing about her birthday. She sounds like a very talented and busy person with writing on FS, journal writing, and belly dancing, plus being a middle school teacher.

Welcome to FanStory, Deanna, and hope you enjoy the community here. Have a very Happy Birthday!!

I haven't yet met Deanna on FS, but I'll try to look her up when life gets a little more sane for me. You told us some interesting facts about her. I wonder what her students think about their teacher being a belly dancer. I do hope she has a wonderful birthday. Carol

Deanna has an interesting life... so ecliptic. I would love to be a belly dancer.... so mysterious... I am a teacher too and I love it. I don't know her. I've never come across her posts. You always do so well with this kind of poem. I love the presentation!

Reminds me of a bachelor party I....no! never mind! I'm straight-laced, conservative, and still faithful to my wife, now gone. However, should I accidentally walk in while she's dancing, well, I wouldn't want to cause any distraction, so I'd stay and congratulate her!

Deanna sounds like a very interesting lady. I've never read any of her work and tried in vain to search for her. However, your poem introduces her and tell a lot about her talents. I will be on the lookout for her posts.

To 11:17, I hope you have a beautiful birthday filled with smiles and love. I wish you much success with your writing on Fanstory.
