    LOL, I just come back from finding you, and here you've been busy leaving fairy dust on my poems. You never fail to amaze me, and I thank you with all my heart. ♥️.. thanks for all the kind words, my sweet and wonderful friend.
    And for the six stars sprinkled with fairy dust. You are such a special kid at heart.
    Love, Debi

I'm not sure if I know Mermaids poems, but I love fairies and unicorms so I shall have to look her up. This is another informative and lovely birthday poem Debi,
I'm sure her mermiad tale is wagging happily.
cheers,
valda

When i was little, i wanted to be an Anthropologist

I didn't know anything about Elaine, so this poem helps to get to know her better.

Well done!

Ha ha, at the end of your first stanza I was like "a mermaid with guinea pigs?" I will slowly catch up to who the members are here and recognize them a little sooner in the poetry! Thank you for this lovely tribute and education. Julie.

    You are so cute, Julie. I guess that line would sound kinda funny if you think of a real mermaid with a guinea pig.
    Thanks for the fun review, and the kind comments my sweet friend.
    Love, Debi

-Lovely artwork and nice presentation, Debi.
-I know Elaine will appreciate your poem, too.
-She adds a lot to FanStory with her fantasy poems.
-You make a good reporter and find out interesting information.
-I think Cape Cod does make a "perfect mermaid scene."
-I am sorry to hear she lost her husband so early in their marriage.

Have a very Happy Birthday, Elaine. I enjoyed learning a little
about you. You are definitely a well rounded person with your college
degree, working with Alzheimer's patients, and living on Cape Cod
has to give you a wonderful place for your imagination to thrive and to enjoy each day.

Happy Birthday, Mermaids!

This is a great piece, Debi. There is so much I
ve learned about people and what goes on in their lives.

I had to laugh at the last stanza here as I'm just getting ready to file for Medicare. Haha! Best, JohnC

I knew her before you joined. We have been friends for a very long time. The artwork was splendiferous and made her all pink. Your words about her made the reader think. She lives in the cave on the ocean floor, when things get too much she shuts the door. I join you in wishing Elaine a Happy Birthday for 165 because mermaids never die, they just thrive. K xx

    LOL, and with our government and president, that's how I feel. Like we are at the bottom of the world, but in a different way. Hugs!
