Excellent poem about Margaret. I got to know her through our reviews and she is one of my favorite fanstorians. She is kind and funny I just love her. I'm so glad you wrote this poem about her.

The rhymes and meter are not forced and they flow well.

the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

    Thanks so much for your very kind comments for my poem for Margaret, my sister of the universe. I wrote about this once before about a year ago, but it was time to give her another nod for
    WHM. Women's History Month. Thanks again my sweet friend.

    I'm seeing my grandkids next week so I'm not sure if I can do your Women's History Challenge. But I'll try.

I love your writing, Debi. And I admire the fact that even though you have not been on here for years, you have made it a point to learn more about many of the writers and you share what you have learned with the rest of us. This is a great tribute to Margaret.

A lovely expression of a cherished friendship. It is easy to see the attraction as your words portray that you are indeed soul sisters. What a blessing a spiritual friendship is. A well written verse.

You did an awesome job with your heartfelt tribute to
Margaret. I enjoyed reading it, Debi. The rhymes--internal
and end were great. Your lines flowed smoothly and created
great imagery. You described her perfectly. She is everything
you wrote and more. You gave readers much information about
Margaret and why you and she are 'sisters.' She is a strong women
as You are, too.
Thanks for sharing your heart, Jan

I'm so very glad you explained what the initials SOTU meant. This was a great poem that showed how you feel about her. It's always wonderful when you can let people know just.how they have enhanced your life. Great job. Gretchen

Beautifully written and filled with your mutual love and respect for each other. It is an amazing gift to have a friend we have never actually met, but feel a strong bond. I know, I have some real special ones. We pray, care, laugh and cry together. Send jokes and words of encouragement and sometimes we rant in a safe place. It's what friends do.
Sending my best to you both across the miles.

I thought SOTU meant "state of the union address, but then I could be wrong, but I love this post Debi, it speaks of a great friendships between two great ladies of fanstory, and I'm happy because I know you both, and love you dearly. Well done, great skilful writing Debi, blessings Roy

    Hey Roy, you remember that old Billy Joel song, where he sings I maybe wrong, but I maybe right. There is no right or wrong, I guess anything will work as long as the letters represents the words. Lol. Besides it was Margaret who made it up, but that is hilarious that it also represent state of the union. Thanks so much Roy. You always amaze me with the ability to crack me up at the same time. Love ya my sweet friend.

You are both very special women. I didn't know what "SOTU" meant until the end, though. :)
Thank you so much for sharing this here, and best wishes to Margaret and you.

    Lol, I thought about naming it sisters of the universe in the first place, but that would have taken away any of the mystery. And you know how much I love a lil surprise ending. However I wasn't real happy with this, as I have been going through some mind altering stuff after my attempt to ween off of another medication, turned into cold turkey when the pharmacy screwed up.
    I feel like my muse is buried underneath those twenty feet snowbanks in our yard. So it isn't; exactly how I want it but the best I can do right now, until these feelings pass. Thanks so much sweet Jessi, as you know that you are one of my favorites here too.

I enjoyed reading your words of friendship with Latebloomer, another Fanstorian whom I have read her works. You have a smooth flow of lines and words that shows how much fun your friendship is and the good times you are having.
