This is a delightful poem, so filled with your love, and showing their characters. If they're the ones in the picture, they're beautiful people. I just posted a mono rhyme recently, but I didn't know that's what it's called.

Oh, this is so lovely my friend. There's nothing better than a cone for their birthdays. It's always better than store-bought card.

Beautifully done I love the whole presentation.
Kerry

Debi, this is a beautiful 0oem for your daughter in law. I wasn't clear because I just woke up, or is it from your mother in law to you. It's very pretty and full of love. I am a fan of semi colons and I have my masters degree in Literacy. I suggested you could change the semicolons that you have used here. They should join two complaints sentences, on just slightly weaker, but both complete sentences.

I'm not certain if poetic license would allow you to change that rule but I wanted to make you aware of that is you are not. I wish I had sex states to give you and I'm glad you have so much love from your son and daughter in law (if I read that property). I need coffee! I should have started with that! ha Have a good day, love to you my friend, Alex :)) xx

    Thanks Sweetie. And it is to my daughter in~love and my son. And as I was writing this last night instead of sleeping. Lol, sounds like we have something in common. Sleep deprived. I don't doubt that I used them incorrectly. So thank you so much. I always appreciate feedback. Without it, how do we stay more aware of weaknesses in our writing. You are awesome my friend. Thank you so very much!!

    Personal question. Does anyone ever call you Alex? Either way I love both names!
reply by Alexandra Trovato on 01-May-2023
    Friends call me Alex and I'm finding it better since my father Alex passed. I didn't want to be called a man's name as a kid. My family calls me Alexan. That's a little known nickname only fsmiky and you can call me that too if you like. :)).

    Lol, its not that I don't love your name, but I try not to write anything to anyone here unless I address them. Because it might look like a copy paste, and we all need to do that at one time or another. However when I get to know someone who I just absolutely love, I use terms of endearment such as sweetie, etc... And most don't mind because that is me. I am not one speck phony. (and the longer you are on FS you will see that I am known for two things) I love letting people know how special they are and the other is I am known as the sites chatterbox, lol.... Surprise!!! I love your name and I love the name Alex too, so if I slip, I am sorry. I am so happy that I got to be one of them that welcomed you. Karenina asked me one day to review you because you were new and needed some help getting acquainted, and that is when I thought, I can do one better than that. So I love how certain people fall in our path. Ok, i will shut up now. Thanks Sweetie!! Lol....

This is a sweet birthday wish for your son and his wife. They sound like a wonderful couple. I like the monorhymed stanzas, followed by the single lines after each verse. Sounds like you might be child-sitting tonight! Blessings on your week.

How lucky your son and daughter in love are. They get serenaded by a verbal troubadour. You are like a Mariachi whose instrument is your gift of rhyme with which you perform mightily, day and nightly.

    Nomi as always, you are so sweet. I thank you so very much for your lovely review and kind words for my poem for Jason and Mel. I am very blessed with family and friends, as I count you as one of those blessings.
    Thanks again, my dear friend and bb.
    LOL, I hope you have gotten over your sis's blunder of accidentally making a racial jeopardy game out of my winter ode. And I know that you were laughing about it, but I did feel bad. That was horrible and it really did sound that way, but glad you know me better than that. Did you understand after I explained it how I meant it?

This is very sweet. I hope Mel knows how much you love her. "Like flowers in a word bouquet" was my favorite bit.

Tell her a random person on the Internet said happy birthday.

    Rosemarie, I thank you so much for you awesome review of my poem for my Jason and Mel, the six stars that you honor me, and your very kind words. You can't possibly know how much it means to me.
    I read this yesterday and text her right away and told her your name and told her what you said. She said to tell you thank you so much and to tell you that she's got a great mother in-love. And to tell you also that you are a sweetheart! Thanks again dear friend.
