Happy Birthday, Siva,

Serendipity : Poetic coincidence:

I had no idea, of course, when I mentioned my soon-to-be 63rd(Nov 9th) that today is your 65th.

I Thank the Lord - Our Father - for the internet which has kept me in communication with the global creative class via my calling in Poetry.

Happy Birthday, again, to you, Siva, my senior sister in poetry

and on a Sunday -

Not: "we only live once."
Instead: We are born once
to live forever

Happy Birthday, Siva!

But I think Bob and I are the seniors, at least, age wise.
I'm 70. Not sure how old Bob is. I don't thin Ken is even close, but I could be wrong.

Thanks all of you for your lovely wishes.
Do you want to know how you all came back to the Block?
I lost my password. For two months I kept on sending mails which were deleted because they usually do that to avoid spam.And then the Michael Neff of the Block threatened that he would pull the whole Poetry Portfolio down.
Bob and Michael requested Neff Michael to write a combined email and reinvite our past members. So every negative thing has a positive effect.That is another kind of Karma.
Thank you
Siva

Do you think I should delete the previous post? Of, for the time when we remained unnoticed!
