BUMP.....time again to lift this exquisite piece of work to the top of the heap where it belongs, 2 years on since it first appeared on these pages. Hopefully someone may stumble on it who never had the priviledge of reading it before.
ae, please come back and bless us with more.

I'm few days late with this BUMP but who cares? It is still phenomenal and worthy and I wish ae was still around to bless us with her work. _________________ Be yourself.............everybody else is taken!

Oh, sweet Noni. Such a lovie.
I liked it when I wrote it, and I love reading it out loud, but I wouldn't have thought it would have such staying power. I guess I have MG to thank for that. My son has a copy of it posted on his living room wall, kind of like a "note to self," but friends read it and generally make some comment. Then he tells them, "yeah, my Mom wrote that," which elicits a kind of sudden shock and embarrassment, he says. One guy said to him, "Wow. That threw me. It's such an un-Mommish thing to write."
Alex said, "Really? You think so? How do you think they got to BE moms?"
Love to all,
ae _________________ -

Everytime I revisit this I read it aloud and wish fervently that it was mine cause I would be SO proud to read it at a poetry slam.

BUMP......This is for Cindy T. who is one of the few who still hangs around the ghost town of these poetry boards. IMO this is one of the best poems ever posted on Mels by our best poet. I forgot to give it the yearly bump up last November, so here it is now. Read it and swoon!
And ae darlin, wherever you are, however you are doing (and I know you are doing it hard), please know that your star shines mighty bright with me.

Thanks MG for this bump up... ae, this is exquisite and absolute rock and roll. I read it through twice and then I read it out loud. Simply beautiful ae, beautiful!!! I think being fucking liars is just part of the human condition and probably has been from the beginning.

I cant say how much it delights me to come in here and see Mel's still exists, if only as a museum of those critical years, frozen in cyberspace. Mel's was my soft place to land so often. It still seems warm and well-lit, with that just-left feeling, all the body heat hasnt even left the halls yet, and though I can still smell the coffee, when I touch the pot, it too, is but warm. MG has turned it off already, on her way out.♡
I love you forever.
Especially Noni.😊 _________________ -

I hit the reply button just for old times sake... suprise, it still works. Every now and then late at night when I can't sleep I wander through the empty halls of Mel's.Made me smile to see that you had also been here ae.
All my love,Noni _________________ Be yourself.............everybody else is taken!
