I haven't been through them all but the majority are here. Go to the bottom and find the forum you posted about.
I can't believe I found them http://web.petabox.bibalex.org/web/1...ry/submit.html |

Thanks, Thelma. Since you are a super-sleuth, see if you can find poems written after 1999. It seems that there was some in 2000 before John switched forum formats. I wonder if he ever got the collection published. Peg |

Yikes! I can't find the server. My entire body of prose was on that server, the one he backed up every night and carried home on a hard disk.
Later: Found the poems on the fifth try. What a wonderful collection! This is a huge consolation if I never find the prose. Thanks, friend. Jaye Last edited by Jaye; 08-07-2007 at 07:04 AM. Reason: not Nice. |

Here are the ones 2000 and back a bit. If they come up unable to read then hit them again and they sometimes come up the second hit.

The Lavender Gown
This poem submitted by Lavnderlou on 2/8/99. 8/8/ -2007 -look at the dates: I had no idea that my life was about to change - - I (still) love the comments of the poets - I still remember writing the poem -trying to encourage myself The tears were running down my face while I was writing this simple little poem… With love to you dear Thelma for finding “The Lost Words” the best part of finding the past is that people shared their thoughts and hearts with others still -and in 1999 the net was still very young... love tenalouise /aka lavenderlou The lavender gown that I once wore antiqued and aging in an old dresser drawer and a purse made of pearls with a handle of gold tarnished,miscolored forgotten and old O joy that I could run back to that day and put on my dress to dance night away Or awaken to find I'd had a nightmare and that I was healthy and had not a care But in this reality I will stay praying for health Day after day Looking for answers? I haven't a clue One day at a time is the best I can do The cure is awaiting in some brilliant mind Who studies with fervor for the answers to find Until then I shall escape in my lavender dress to dance with the stars and run from the stress -------------- Author's Notes -------------- Sometimes dwelling on illness,leads to depression, and in my case this is so true,so I escape from the thoughts that bombard me daily. I do have parkinson's disease,but it does not have me!!!! ___________________ This comment submitted by Jansidel on 3/31/99. Email Address: Hi Lavenderlou, I have just read your beautiful poem and have decided to use some of my precious ink printing it out! You certainly have a way with words, Parkinson's has it's way with your body, but not your mind. I could feel myself in the room with you, real or imaginary it was lovely. I too have a precious dress, long black velvet with tiny red bows, it stays in the loft, only because I can no longer climb up the ladder and get it! maybe tomorrow? So Wonderful This comment submitted by toadie on 2/23/99. Email Address: I've had pd for 8yrs & am 34, I hope I can be as positive and inspiring as you are. This is such a beautiful poem, keep writing you have such a gift for imagery. Thank you. ~Till then...~ This comment submitted by Peekaboo on 2/23/99. Email Address: Hang in there ... your Absolutely so right. I love your poem and the message in it we are in charge at lease we try. I have befriend my brain tumor and im on the road to recovery I think I hope, well you know how it is *wink Good luck Always Niccki Dancing with the stars This comment submitted by Carlos Pe�aranda on 2/14/99. Email Address: EDITED OUT BY ADMIN ! Oh, what a poem.. It rise my soul to the heaven., and plant a seed of Faith and Hope in my life. Thanks. Carlos My gown was blue... This comment submitted by Granny on 2/9/99. Email Address: Your lovely poem brought back memories of my "sweet little Alice-blue gown" I wore on our 'senior trip' in high school. You have a wonderful attitude, and we all pray for a wonderful outcome. Until then I will try to 'escape from my stress, and dance in my dress'. Thank you. lavender gown This comment submitted by EG on 2/8/99. Email Address: Good words, lovely word pictures. I hope they find the cure soon, I have personal experience with this disease, feel like running away from it too,diagonosed in 1993.

One of the reasons we have urged caution on reposting these in their entirety is that EMAIL ADDYS SHOW on many of the old posts.
PLEASE if anyone is copying these old posts, you MUST check for other people's personal information and edit it out before posting these here I know it is great to find these old posts, but this is an area we have to be careful of when re-posting them thanks Cheri

I saw that one for the first time yesterday morning and i remember the day I first saw it.
So much has happened and so little as well since you wrote that. You have taken me along on your journey and it has been quite a trip. We all here in many ways have gone thru hell in one way or another and still we post and still we share both the good and the bad. Like one member says here we try and not let the really bad obsess us so that it scares anyone new or bring them down but assure them that they too can weather it. This is a new site for us and while the old one had it's bad points it was the mother of this one. And I would like to remember what took place there. John will tell us what he feels is best for this site and we really should wait for him. I guess I am too old to be thought of as an errant child but we have all been treated that way even by each other and survived, So is that it Tena .................WE [really] ARE THE CHAMPIONS |

dearest Thelma
we are trying the best we can - and if we learn from our mistakes - and I have made soooooooooooo many -we become victorious , instead of victims... but it takes hard lessons, and much pain - yet when we use it contructively to help others, the pain eases thank you, for showing us how far we have come in our walk. I am happier now -then at the beginning -however in all things - I have found not to look back too often -and on the other hand dont live a week ahead of the calender - this kind of stuff -causes to much stress, and when you combine high stress with toxic food, environment -a stupid president that is a warmonger -etc. illness is usually a mathmatical result... I have learned one valuable lesson -when the TV talkers starts to get to you press the OFF button - Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. ~ Helen Keller ~ love and peace to your heart thelma, luv tena
