How can I even begin to thank all of you for bringing me to this milestone.  I am overwhelmed at the support I receive from this blogging community, and beyond.  When I started this journey a little over five years ago, I was thrilled when I had one follower.  I’m still trying to wrap my head around 3500!!

There were many times I have thought about giving up, packing it in and saying it was a fun ride (and I actually did except, my daughter wouldn’t have it), but your comments and likes are what keep me going.  The friendships I have made here, and around the social media circuits, are more than I could ever imagine.  You have touched my heart and soul, and I am humbled by your kindness!!

Again, thank you so, so very much!  ❤

With Much Love,
Dorinda

No matter what time of year, far or near

Gather together, the ones you hold dear

Reminisce about the days, when life was a trip

Remember to cherish, such lasting friendships

Hello friends,

This past weekend, I had to say goodbye to a very dear friend.  He was an incredible man, much like a brother to my husband, and treated our family with so much love and respect.  I am having difficulty dealing with his death, and as such, I have not been writing, nor visiting WP as often as usual.  Please bear with me, as I work my way through these emotions.  Thank you  ❤

Hello everyone!!

I woke up this morning, which is definitely a great thing, signed into WordPress, and my jaw dropped! Over 3000 followers and over 200,000 views!  I’m at a loss for words.  Can you believe it?!

All kidding aside, I cannot thank you enough for sticking with me over these last four years.  Your encouragement through tough times, your compassion when I was able to express those times through my poetry, and of course, your friendship, is the reason I am still sharing my poetry.  This is a community of wonderful people, able to share stories, relate life experiences and yes, become friends outside of WordPress.  I am proud to be a member of this group!

Thank you, again, so much, for making my day that much brighter and so much fuller than I could imagine on my own!

Love to all

~Dorinda

Narf and Snarf’s Gnarly Adventure ~ #AprilWriting #poetry

Two friends went out for a ride
Always hanging, by each other’s side
It was the righteous thing to do
Besides, it was nothing new
Both of them took it in stride

Narf finally met his bride to be
Sitting under a magnolia tree
Let’s go out on a date
Won’t get you home late
I promise, he said, wait and see

“Cowabunga!” Narf cried, with joy
A slap on the back, “Atta boy!”
Came from his dear friend Snarf
Who really wanted to barf
This friendship, a girl did destroy

Seems Snarf was just being screwed
By a so called pal, who was rude
Cared not for his friend
And, so this was the end
Of the adventures of two gnarly dudes
