You did an amazing job with your birthday greeting
for Greg. However, it is more than that. It is a tribute
with words straight from your huge heart, Debi. I loved
the picture, the color scheme, and the rhymes. Most of
all, though, I loved how you honored him. Each verse paid
tribute to him in a special way. Those memories will remain
forever as seen here in your recollection. Without saying,
you showed the love and special sibling togetherness of your
siblings.
Thanks for sharing an uplifting poem, Jan

    Awe, Jan, I was thinking about you all day today ( actually all week) and 1 told myself I had to contact you and at least say Hi.such a busytime, but you know how that is too. Thank you for this lovely review and such kind words. You are the best! Miss you!

This is a lovely poem for your brother's 70th Debi and though we don't know the stories you gave us an insight into how close your family is. Very nice,
Cheers
Valda

    Hi Valda! As always, you are so sweet. I thank you so very much for your lovely review and kind words for my poem for my brother.
    I noticed I don't have your name down on my birthday list as I did have some I wanted to keep track of some of my favorite people.
    Any chance you could give me yours?

    I celebrated mine yesterday, with icecream and takeaway with the family. 26th April

    Oh no, it was you. I had the date written down of April 26th, but lost the paper I wrote it on so I have been asking people again when their birthdays were so I could find out who I was missing, Valda. It is still the 26th here so I am going to write something and post it for you yet today. I feel so bad, but I will make it up to you if you don't mind me posting a little birthday message for you.

That's particularly tragic to lose your two brothers when they were so young, but you're very much still with us dear Debi, this is a cryptic for me, but you.know for whom you wrote, and your caring heart shines like the noon day sun, well done, blessings Roy

    Roy, as always, you are so sweet. I thank you so very much for your lovely review and kind words for my poem for my brother.
    Greg may be my only biological brother left, but because of you and a few others, I am rich in brotherly love. Thank you for that, my dear friend.

what a special birthday wish and what a special family. I'm sure everybody loved it and how neat to have so many, though sad that you lost two.
I don't guess you all still live near each other do you? Probably spread all over everywhere.
Well, this was a great idea, and a fun read.

How wonderful to have a family that can gather and enjoy the holiday. The memories that cousins, and sisters and brothers, aunts and uncles, etc. create are times to be treasured. Your brother must be a gem to open his home to so many people, but it is better than presents to be together.

I know what you mean... It is so fun to write poems your family will enjoy because they know the references you're making, but the FanStory family enjoys them too because it is a glimpse of you, a poet we love, and we know it is meaningful to you. Thank you for sharing your spirit and your poetry with us. I always enjoy what you write!!! MM

This was very good. I like that you showed your brother as someone who knew how to connect with each of his sisters. He was able to make a bond through his selfless acts. Your mom must have had her hands full. Lol. Thank you for posting. Gretchen
