This site is a blessing for us in our solitude. There are many of us who live alone that are on FS and having these wonderful invisible friends surrounding us is a treasured feeling. You have expressed it so well in your lilting poem. Thank you for sharing your gratitude.

Thank you for your very perceptive and so true comments about
the blessing of this site. Indeed it offers much meaningful and
often soulful inspiration and reflections of so many brilliant and
talented writers on here, as 'virtual, invisible friends' as you note
so graciously. I am so pleased you enjoyed this poem and
reflected on it so kindly and appreciably. My pleasure to share
always. God bless and hope you have a truly lovely Easter!
Best wishes always, Ronni

Dear Ronni...so good to be back and reading your wonderful poetry. So inspiring as always:

"Indeed, we may never see or meet in person
so many kindred spirits and poetic friends here
yet we know, feel, and love them just the same.....

Yes of course....:) God bless you and yours dear friend. Bob

Hi Bob,
Wonderful surprise to have you peek in dear friend!
Not aware you were off and now back again, but all the
more pleased you are and affirming it here now.
I share your sentiments completely in the verse section
in tribute you noted particularly meaningful and endearing.
Indeed, we go back some while now on this site.
I am so proud of you and all your book accomplishments
and published success with them, all so deserved many times
over! I wish you all the more ahead dear Bob!
Thanks for appreciating this tribute, and your kind thoughts
and compliments always so supportively shared.

Hope you are staying well now, take care and God Bless!
Gratefully always, Ronni

What a lovely offering, my Lady Ronni! ;) There are certainly a wide array of folks on here with so many different tastes and styles that I love to just take a day (when I have the time - ugh!) and just do 'bonus reviewing'... introduces you to a whole new 'crop' of folks out there! ;) Love your tribute and your verse!! :) Thanx for sharing, Beautiful Friend! Yvette

Hello dear Yvette,
You are so right dear, there are so many new talents and writers of such wide and varied imaginations and backgrounds, I too
love it when I can take a day or so just being so amazed at those
'bonus reviewing' writes, and wow, there is indeed a way new
arrival or discovery of amazing minds and muses!
Ahh but my dear, no less so are you....a new wave and sometimes
seeming off the radar kind of mind and muse, but always so
delightfully curious and imaginative in your topics and styles!
Often so blown away, takes me awhile to absorb and appreciate
it to even begin a reply...ah but love the challenge of it always!!!
You dear Dixie Belle extraordinaire are innovation and enlightenment on steroids! (LOL) And we love it and you all the
more for it! Keep it up dear friend!!! (;) (:)
Love always, Ronni

Awww, thank YOU Miss Ronni!
I am out of sixes, but I send a 'virtual' one.
There is so much to love here, and to learn
from. Kudos to you for recognizing that.
We are all inspiring, and we are all blessed
to share.
Hope you are staying well,
God bless...

Hello dear Irish Rain!
Lovely to have you stop by, and delightful treat as always, and
then some! Thank you for the thoughtful appreciations on this
dear! But, do take a bow yourself, for as one who always leaves
one in more than imaginable place while immersed in your
exquisite and incomparably captivating poems, you certainly
are one whom has blessed us by many surprises, misty
eyed innovations and gently uplifting heart and spirit themes
and messages! Especially me. And forever grateful for your
sharing so graciously, more than can ever be conveyed.
You are always a 6...anytime dear. Hope you are
staying safe and well too dear.
Love, blessings, Ronni

Thank you Miss Ronni...we are good...gonna ride this one out, ha ha...Be Well!!

reply by the author on 05-Apr-2020

Always welcome! For one always running short on time
and always on the go, this
'shelter in place' cov-19 precaution, was an unusual
'whoa" but likewise, a more
restful one to indulge in other
hobbies or catch up on a whole lot of 'rainchecks' with
people, except getting in
'touch' applied to them too..
LOL...so here we all are doing
the virtual rsvp, just like
before when too busy to do
so personally, it's ironic, but
we're all still smiling anyway !LOL. You keep taking care!
Love, Ronni

reply by Irish Rain on 06-Apr-2020

You too Miss Ronni. Being an introvert...I love staying home anyway. I just hate the reason for it. Brighter days ahead!!

Hi dear Linda,
Thank you dear for your gracious and generous compliments on
this one, and indeed YOU are one special poet who always leaves
us uplifted, encouraged and more aware of our blessings always
outweighing our trials and challenges in your inspiring writings,
such as the one you just recently won on here, and congratulate
you for wholeheartedly! So you were most definetly included
in my thoughts and appreciations while writing this. You always
leave me with uplifted spirits and smile after reading your timely
posts. So many others do too as we've shared back and forth.
I too heard of a FS Reunion some while back, but not when
or where...and truly would be nice to have one...'where' being
the key wonder or question. But maybe somehow will yet be
managed or worked out. Would be great fun! And look forward
to meeting too, you included would be most delightful and then some! Glad you enjoyed this one dear. You take care, and
bless you for all your wonderful support and appreciations always.
Love, blessings, always, Ronni

Thank you for guiding us to "a better place, mind, spirit or hope" with your thoughtful tribute to our FanStorians' imaginations, as they merge into "Magnificent stars" and "mystical acquiescing spheres of space". I admired the reinforcing stars' artwork as well. Cheers- Joan

This vividly descriptive poem conveys a powerful message of gratefulness to Fan Story and appreciation for fellow writers on here. Such connections are especially important as times like these. You have a typo in line 7.

I'm in a loss for words Ronnie for lost for words for our dear being story friends like Dean Much and all the many others who have passed since I've been a member here now going on 8 years.
...
I liked how you blended the sentences and then each blending that I read had a new and different and deeper meaning until the very end.

Take care my dear Ronnie.
You're special!
