Its time for me to return to the great outside world of work!! after a year of being at home.... View table of contents...

It’s been a year that I have been home and played,

With my computer and educating my mind,

To all of its wonders and what you can find,

The best thing that happened me this last year

Is interacting with all Booksie inspiring writers,

The friends I have made all over the globe,

How we commend each other for our Poems that glow

But now I am afraid I have to go return to the grindstone of work you know!!!

However I make a pledge to you

I will find time for my family in Booksie

To carry on reading and learning as I go

Of all of the adventures and heartaches expressed from your souls

I will place the odd poem to keep you in touch

But for now to all you budding writers new and old

Keep telling your stories of life as they unfold

For ours lives are just a mystery to be told as you go

Happy writings to the new and the old

Till later my friends…………I bid you god Bless

It does feel like I have just found an extended family. All the elements are there, the loving father, the younger sister, the brooding brother, the funny aunt....It's so brilliant! Glad to be in your family Juliet.

Lilypad i feel the same about Booksie it is like a big family....for we all express out pain or thoughts be it sad happy painfull and there is always someone there to listen and help....which makes us know we are never alone...Happy days happy writing Juliet

Very nice 'bye-bye' poem. I wish you well going back in to the work world but PLEASE.... don't completely abandon Booksie!!! Here's an idea for you to fit it all in!! On Monday-Wednesday and Friday when you get home from work, eat supper, etc., and after, set aside 1/2 hour to touch base on Booksie and as much as you want to on the weekend or days off. Oaky... that's solved... next problem!!!! hehehe Seriously, I hope you can fit some booksie time in as I will miss your poems and comments terribly. Wishing you happiness and peace.....Jerry

Your presence here will be missed when your gone and appreciated each time you stop by again. Life is nothing if not change and as much as things change your kind words that welcomed in my thoughts will always paint the loveliest picture of you in my heart.

You remind me of this saying:

"our lives would always remain the same over a number of years except for two things"

"the books we read" and
"the people we come across"

farewell and hope you come back soon..................!
