I just shake my head in amazement each time you allow us to gain greater insight into all of your birthday delights... and a big Happy Birthday Sarah! Wow, what a journey!

You're such a clever-caring writer who brings us one step closer to knowing, not only who's birthday it may be, but always in a melodic rhyme, always giving us the snippets of information to makes us who aren't acquainted, want to be!

Beautiful dedication to Sarah, Debi. You never fail leaving a contented smile on my face sweet Lady!

With our thoughts we create...
sweet wishes.

Warm regards,
James.

******Star Exceptional!

    Hi James, would you believe I am almost done with thank yous from five poems in a row? They are all so important to me, but oh how I hate getting this far behind. So I appreciate you and others being so patient.

    I thank you for such kind words for Sarah's poem. Each one is so different and so special to me, so it is such a great reward to do these poems. Thanks again, my very dear friend. Love, Debi

Wow! What a fantastic birthday card. I am thrilled beyond words. The time you spent on the poetry, the art work and the music is greatly appreciated. Thank you for accepting me into the group of writers. I am still learning from you all. You have made me feel like I am 18 instead of 81! Sarah
P.S. My last name is Robin.

    Awe, Sarah, that fits even better while I?m using an analogy of a little bird I was wishing it was Robin. Not sure how or why I though that, but J?m going in to make the changes right now. Happy birthday, Sarah! And you are very welcome.

    I am impressed with the picture. You must have spent hours looking for those bits and pieces. I am going to have it framed for my desk. Thanks ever so much. Sarah

    LOL, lucky I didn't have pictures of your boys and grandkids, cause not sure I would have found room to fit a poem in too. Haha.
    Sarah, I am so happy that you are delighted with all of this. That is why I do these, because they mean something to someone. And that is the biggest reward I have ever had in all of my years of writing. I do put my heart into these, so that is all I ask is that you like it when it is all said and done. Changes can always be made, like the spelling of your last name. I was so thankful that it was Robin, because I made the reference about you flying like a spring time bird, so you made my day with that one. And if there is anything else that doesn't seem quite right, I would feel horrible if you didn't tell me. Anything can be easily added or subtracted and changed.
    So please don't hesitate to tell me, Sarah.

    As mutual friends of Terry's, that makes you pretty special friend to me too.
    Did he send you the link to the poem. I sent it to him this morning. Actually I know I have your email I could have sent it to you myself and will if you don't already have it.
    Happy Birthday again Sarah!! Love, Debi

    I want to thank you again for making this my best birthday ever. Terry sent the link. More to come

Fantastic birthday tribute to, Sarah.
I recall her bridge playing post
The one with Omar Sharif,
She held her seat quite steady
Probably had Omar sweating and in a lot of grief.
(Haha, my vain attempt at poetry)

I liked the lines that rhymed -
But Alec, Jessica and Chris are her precious grandkids

They're closest to her heart, they always get her highest bids

You matched up her grandkids and bridge playing, her precious commodities!

Cool that she's learning the ukulele, I play the banjo and recently picked up the mandolin.

Sorry I'm rambling on and on...
As usual a fine post!
Enjoy the Saturday.
John

    Hey, I am bringing you to the front of the line to respond to you. Maybe I should have you partner in with me to do these. That poetry line was pretty darn clever, my friend.

    However, I'm not sure about what you said that you liked the lines that rhymed. Have you ever known me to write a line that didn't rhyme? Hahaha!
    Just yanking your chain, my friend.

    Thanks so much and I love the fact that you play the banjo and the mandolin.
    I play the dulcimer. Have you ever heard of one of those? I played drums and guitar as a teenager, and play piano by ear, so figured I could and I do a halfway decent job of it. My husband loves music so he likes it.

    Thanks again for the sweet review my friend. Love, Debi

Sounds like a very busy and fulfilled life she has had. I join you in wishing her a happy birthday and a year of happiness. I like the collage of images as much as the poem. Well done for all aspects.
