December Theme Prompt #3: Ends 12/31/10:
Love
Love is a gift we can share, whether it is between partners, friends or family. William Shakespeare once wrote “Love comforteth like sunshine after rain.” I feel this sums up a heart that truly loves no matter the person or people in their life, it’s those who shine for you and you for them that know love. Write a poem about love and how someone’s love has touched you or your love has touched someone else.

| Had We But Worlds Enough, And Time . . . | | November 5th 2013, 11:57 am by Jamie | I never wanted to write this post. Life, however, brings to us changes of necessity, not changes we want.
Unfortunately, and as evidenced by the past few months' activities, I do not have the time to properly govern the use of this site anymore. While there are visitors every day, the posts by members are becoming fewer and farther between, and the staff participation is just as sparse.
