since it's 8/8/8, doreen, you manage a good forum here. there's great diversity here and some familiar old voices. so, thanks.

i feel especially taken by that date, especially when i'm missing the perfect 8-sequence-points-of-time by a whisker, as my last name could be translated into "eight-not"...

(the other translation option would be "don't care about it"...)

happy name day, studio eight!

"two threes kissing".... I like that.

What's it been, four years now? Hard to believe...
And how the hell did I get 3000 posts? That can't be right...

Hey greight! As usual I'm leight!

I did write an 08/08/08 poem for the occasion somewhere else...why don't I plunk it here...


Oh wait in patience (little play on words don't ya know)

oh wait
oh wait
oh wait

it has always been so
whether in cold, shivering
or beneath the heat
that withers and blisters
shrivels the very soul

oh wait
oh wait
oh wait

time's pattern a steady flow
the stops and starts
the memories
each year, each decade
moved slow

and now as the winter approaches
where wisdom is supposed to supply
the strength that my weakness can lean on
it is questions I find myself questioning
as answers pass quickly by

oh wait
oh wait
oh wait

so dearly I want to know
the reason
the rhyme
and the poetry
life dangles in front of my nose

oh wait
I believe I can see it

oh wait
I can touch it almost

oh wait
please don't tear it from me

in patience I've waited so long
