Word blossom and prayers ascending for Brooke. Surely all this energy will warm and heal her. We are a family on this site and when a member hurts, we all hurt.

    Thank you very much, Jean! You are so very right as when one of us suffers then we are all there as one to share the pain. God bless and shower you with abundant joy.

A very delightfully expressed poetic portrayal of you need for Brooke's presence on this site. Very well written aabbcc rhymed sestets, except for send and again. That kast line could easily rhyme with send, like friend.

or Brooke to be quite well again.

Make it
or Brooke to be quite well, my friend

I never go into the forums and was unaware of the seriousness of her illness. It just breaks my heart. I pray that she gets better and returns to us, those that love her and her poems. I miss her dearly.

    She must have been feeling unwell for a long time before this and yet never let it beat her so I have to think the diagnosis is the first hurdle to getting her well once again. We must have nothing but positive thoughts as that is the source of all healing.

Hi MA,

I think we can all agree with your thoughts in this piece.

I was wondering what had happened to Brooke because I hadn't received a poem or review from her for a week or two.

Well, now I know and the knowing does not help!

Thanks for writing such an excellent poem relating our good wishes to her for a speedy recovery.

Have a great day,
Bill

    Thank you, Bill. You are right that sometimes there is angst in the knowing BUT if we all join together in good wishes sent her way perhaps the outcome will be a happy one. I shall focus m thoughts and prayers in that positive direction.

    I dropped Brooke a note after I read about her ailment.
    You are right, however, combined good wishes and prayers will help in her recovery!
    She shall certainly be in my thoughts from now on...

We are all missing Brooke and your kind poem will be a nice reminder when she sees it. She is such a strong lady and I know she will do her best to get back to us. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, terrific poem, Mystic Angel. In excellent meter and rhyme. Brooke will be smiling and tapping her foot in approval.

The artwork works divinely well too. Those roses look good enough to eat.

Excellente!!

    Thank you so much, Gloria! If she taps her foot that is high praise indeed as those of us who love her know LOL. I am so happy you think this worthy of a lady who has given so much to all of us here.

This is a wonderful tribute to Brooke, M/A and one I'm sure she will particularly appreciate for its impeccable meter and rhyme. There is one very small typo for you to fix: add "at" before "night" in the last stanza. Brooke is very special to so many of us whom she has friended and mentored. Sometimes, life just doesn't seem fair. Sue

    Thank you, Sue! Boo boo correction noted. I feel like if we all send out one giant wish and blessing for her healing she will come back to us soon.

Your tribute features the use of descriptive language and shows concern for this writer you have written about. This makes reading it more interesting.

Very nice, Mystic Angel :) I see you figured out how to add your poem to this multi author book :) I'm sure I reviewed this poem before, but it doesn't show up here. Maybe because it's been moved to this book? Anyway, nice message to Brooke. I too don't want to see anyone take Brooke's number one standing :(

    I had to register it again too which kind of threw me BUT I would jump through rigs of fire for Brooke so a couple of extra clicks was no big deal LOL.
