For Those Who Could Not Be Here Now
When Belinda and Damyanti were calling us all together for this ongoing blogfest, there was quite the group. For various reasons along the way, some have not been able to continue as part of the active group. But, they have supported us in vision and we carry their presence with us. They know who they are.
So… this post is a thank you to those who have been on the way with us, and, who are taking a break from active involvement. Thanks not only to the ever valiant Belinda and Damyanti, but, on this occasion to Michelle, those post, F is for Fragmented , jolted me out of my procrastination towards this note of thanks.
For Those Who Could Not Be Here Now
You were there in the inviting,
When the summons came our way,
To gather in our writing,
And pledge to make the day
better for others reading,
So with us still you stay.
Your titles might not sit upon
a linky-list adorning screens,
Although your names from rolls are gone,
We know you share our dreams.
Certain you will rejoin us,
As our blogs towards goodness tend,
Your absence causes little fuss,
As you’ll be with us by the end.
So we keep on collecting stories,
From the fragments of many lives,
Of the greater and lesser glories,
Of famous or less known strives.
Newsfeeds we’ll light with gladness,
Away from trifles we’ll steer,
We’ll tell of peace and of compassion,
And imbue it all with cheer.
Do not feel at all remiss,
Towards our life, blogging friend,
For we carry your presence with us,
From now until the end.
