Sometimes the words flow like a murder of crows. They've held my secrets for the past 65-years. And sometimes they repeat them back to me, and laugh.

    Dear Yigal, and Robin's whole family at Poetry.
    It is with much sadness that I must tell you that Robin passed away on September 23rd at 6pm. Her last year on this earth was plagued by many health issues and cancer finally consumed her body. She always spoke so highly of this group and all of you. It has taken me a while to notify all the people who loved and cared for her. She was my last sister, and the ninth of eleven siblings to pass into eternity. Though her body is gone, her spirit will live on in her beautiful poetry. I will miss her so much. God bless you all for giving her so much joy. Thank you. Donna M. Young

      Dear Donna, I wasn’t on this site too long before Robin became ill, but in the short time I knew her, I was touched by her generous spirit and loving heart. I am so sorry for your loss. May her memory always be a blessing to you, and all who loved her.

      Apparently she'd taken a bad fall that required hospitalization, as was told to me by another member. I hadn't seen the message and so was unaware. I sent her a message last month but haven't heard a word. I am very worried about my friend whom I love and adore.

    Every kind thing you've said about my poems, goes double for yours. I remember some of them from the contests, and in time I will read them all or reread them. Your poetry is poignant and touches my heart.

    It's quite funny how life could play a trick, that in someone's poetry every bit of emotions rightfully stick. Your writing is indeed worth reading. :)

    So, this poet comes across my field of vision on allpoetry and I am immediately blown away by her talent causing me to leave numerous comments on her works. She then proceeds to read ALL of my poems leaving comments on every single one. This is one of her comments - humbling to say the least and encouraging beyond belief.

    "Well you got me- I am a forever fan now- I am astounded by your work and your fascinating philosophy!!! I cannot wait to read and write comments on every single poem here!!! You are amazing and I love that we have unique inspiring people like yourself that share their reflections in life and speak on the truths and beauties in this world- you do not hold back and that is most definitely a good thing!! I am inspired by you and your collectivity and your talents- this is sheer skill and ability your mind set and your intellect- truly is above and beyond!!!"

    I mean, wow! What does one say to this, but thank you.
