This post highlight Fanstory's greatest gift to we writers. It creates a place to display our writing. It offers opportunity to have our work critiqued and most importantly it builds friendship between like-minded people, other writers. I am however left with one question. Who is Sweet Sotu?

Lol, dear Bob you may want to read it again cause it is explained. Her name is Margaret and her pen name is Late Bloomer. I am sure you have run across each other. It not only says both names, explains why we call it that at the end of the poem as Sisters of the Universe. We both met here and had dealt w many similarities but major health problems that we still deal w as friends. Is that why you gave it a four because you didn't think that was explained? I hope you will read one more time and see. Thanks Bob for reading and reviewing tho.

You must understand, I am male and we males don't always see the obvious. Now I assume it is Sisters of the Universe, SOTU. Please forgive my lack of observence. LOO

Comment from GARY MACLEAN
I think I have said it before but I'll say it again, you have such an uncanny knack for recognizing people just through their words and then defining and describing and introducing them to the rest of us.
I know Late Bloomer, I have read a lot of her stuff and she mine. I have always enjoyed what she has had to say but now I will enjoy it even more.
Thanks, Debi for this "behind the curtain" look at a fellow Fanstorian.

Thank you my sweet Gary, who I still can't get used to seeing that wonderful smile every time I see your reviews.
I thank you for this, but I had no right posting those two poems w no brain power and fallin asleep at the keyboard all night. They have been improved on since and I am much happier with now, and got a little more sleep too. Thanks so much dear dear Gary. Can't tell you how much I always appreciate you and your sweet stars too.

So that's what "SOTU" means! (I'm a wee bit slow on these abbreviations)
Margaret is a very warm and loving person. I do not know her as well as you but am proud to be a friend, and it was great reading about your many similarities!
Manhattan or Minnesota (Hey, they both begin with "M") ~~ seems you two "aligned" very quickly!
Another lovely tribute poem!

Comment from Wendy G
That's a clever poem for Margaret, and how lovely that you have so much in common, and can share with and encourage one another. You said it was for Women's History Month - but it's not in the contest?
Well written.

Hi Wendy, I didn't want the joy of my writing something from the heart to be hurt again. I read something that I know was written against me in a recent contest that was so untrue, and it hurt so bad, cried too many tears, and it took away the joy of the win. I don't know why I am so sensitive, but it's how God made me. So, at least for now, I enjoy just honoring all you wonderful friends here, and that's good enough for me. Thank you dear friend for your kind comments for Margaret's poem.
