Today I would like to talk a little about my family over at cosmofunnel.com …..It is a poetry site where like minded individuals share their poetry and sometimes the intimacies of their lives. It is truly an inspiring community of writers, who support one another and look out for each other. Through “Cosmo” I have made a loving and particularly truly gifted new friend. Today I would like to tell you about her as she has been an inspiration in many parts of my life. She has opened up her heart to me and showered me with love and attention. She is the biggest supporter of this blog and the only person I know who has read every single one of my poems and commented on them all. She is a wonderful poet and a superb writer, and a bright spiritual light, who’s beliefs include all things Metaphysical. She so freely and generously shares her incredibly detailed paranormal experiences with us here on this blog. She is an “Angel” that I feel God has sent especially just for me. She supports me in my struggle with my disease and she tells me she loves me at least 3 times a day. She is the most beautiful selfless person I know. So much so that she has agreed to share one of her most intimate pieces with you all here today. It is a tribute to her son Andrew who sadly died from cancer in May 2009 at the age of just 31. She wrote the piece for the 4th anniversary of his death, and in it’s finest sense it shows their love for each other. I call her Georgie, her real name is Georgina Richardson and here is a piece of her life and her loving heart….
STILL
He is no longer mine
He has left me a great mountain of memories
His feather soft kiss still plays on my cheek
My heart still bursts and sparks with the flame of the love we shared
With the dreams we dreamt
The wind still sighs
I still melt with the memory of the warmth of his skin in my quiet moments
I still see his smile in moonbeams high
Hear his laughter in the fire of the sparkling stars
Stilled are the echo`s of the fire in his soul, his shine
The sweet memory of his soft perfect skin
He still dances in the rhythm of the blossoms in sway
Still his aura caresses sweetly the leaves on the swaying branch
He is no longer mine
His soul holds me gently
His song dries my aching tears
Still I feel him close
Always
Always part of me
For we are bound as one
Thank you Georgie
God bless you, and forever keep you safe.
My Angel

Thank you sounds so inadequate T` for what you have said about me on here, but it comes with lots of hugs sweety. You have made me feel very special and I`m also blushing!!! But there are a lot of people on Cosmo who love and respect you also, not just me. I`ve said it before! your talent shines honey and because of all your hard work, people are getting a lot of enjoyment from this blog and they are also learning from you and your many experiences. You are a very good tutor, so keep it up for us all.
I do love you sweety, very much. G xx
Hey G, that’s one of the reasons I love you, turning the light back on me….well, I see your tricks….todays a day for you my friend…….and don’t kid yourself, there’s nothing I could teach you…….you’re the teacher with your shining example my friend……..so…..bite me (lol)……..later…….t xx
You`re such a `Beasty Boy` you`re determined to turn me into a cannibal aren`t you????!!!! (LOL!!) I`ve told you! I`m on a meat free diet today so stop trying to tempt me with little Yankee morsels! The Doc said I`m not allowed to eat in between meals (LOL!!!!!)
I still love ya though and thank you again, you`re spoiling me today!
G xxoo
Ps today you have earned two cuddles to go with the smooches!!!!
LOL……lol……..very funny…… 🙂 t xx
Not at all Georgina. Just from the short Time I have known
you this is SPOT ON. Very well done Tony, this is a marvelous
tribute to a lady who’s physical beauty is matched by the
wondrous aura of her Bright Soul.
I LOVE the poem too ma’am. It is also a good tribute to a
very dear soul, and I am sure the Angels quote from it.
good day my respective friends.
Thank you so much J` that was so lovely of you to spoil me like that. I`m not used to all this being in the spotlight stuff!! T` is quite a naughty boy doing that post, I thought he was going to put the poem on alongside others, I was quite shocked to see what the little tinker had written with it!! and I`d also forgotten all about the poem!! But I wouldn`t change him for the world honey, you have both made today a very special day for me and I will always treasure both of you and the friendship that we have all built together.
I wrote the poem for my son Andrew for the 4th anniversary last year of his death from bowel cancer aged 31 so I was thrilled and very honoured when T` wanted to put it on to the blog, I certainly didn`t expect any of this though, so I am quite a happy little bunny today and I know Andrew is thrilled to see his mum up in lights so to speak!!!! lol. Thank you again for that wonderful compliment, I`m still blushing!!!
Love to you

Awww! Georgina is being humble. That was the sweetest write in support of a beloved friend, T. She is a talented writer as well with a big heart. I felt all warm and fuzzy reading about your sweet friendship. Much respect to her.
Just have to say though, that I too have read every single one of your poems since you came bursting on the scene of Cosmo. I am just saying! 🙂
Cosmofunnel has been a great connecting place for writers and it has really inspired me and changed my own writing skills. The support there is beautiful, and I have made new friends that are keepers!
Tony, I could write pages and pages to express how much you mean to me, but I won’t. Lol… Just know that God is good and don’t think I don’t know that His will brought us together as friends. I adore you!!! You are a light that cannot be denied and I couldn’t if I tried. You shine so bright. 🙂 xox Cherie
Totally lovely to have an Angel in your life 🙂 I am very delighted that your place of creative expression is connecting the points of God’s delight and support shining in your lives 🙂
The gift of sharing and connecting this way was your destiny. I delight to see such rich and true hearted relating opening up so marvelously at this time 🙂 blessings and joy be yours . I rejoice with the unfolding of God’s love outpouring upon you…yes and your dear new friends and upon their lives as well….love and joy to you 🙂
Beautiful love gift shared in Georgina’s exquisite poem of deepest love…..powerful and tender filled with the light of God’s love within her poured out to bless so many other lives. Treasure of treasures…bless you always and in your ongoing living to share more from your heart and spirit 🙂 blessings and every joy to you also. I understand why you and Tony are such caring friends 🙂 happy for you 🙂
Thank you Alice for such a beautiful message from you sweety. I truly am honoured that Tony wanted to include this poem within his work frame of the blog and I`m very pleasantly shocked by what he has said and I might add still blushing!
I want you to know that he is very much loved and highly respected on the cosmo site, we are like one big family on there and it`s true what he says, we do look out for each other and encourage each other as much as possible.
I`ve always believed that a small piece of honest praise goes a long way to boosting someones confidence and in turn encourages them to try harder and the harder they try the more enjoyment they will get out of their toil. It is a pure pleasure to read T`s work and he is growing beyond the stars now as pure art flows from his imagination. His soul shines through his words, not just in his poetry but in his writing in general. You should and must be as proud of him as we all are.
Thank you once again for your very kind and encouraging words to me and thank you from my son Andrew as I know he wants me to thank you for him, I wrote the poem for him on the 4th anniversary of his death age 31 last year, so it means a great deal to me that others think so highly of that particular piece.
Much love and best wishes
God bless you sweety,
G xx
Great post and inspiring story of enduring friendship, Georgina I also raise my glass to you…your poem ‘Still’ is a great poem, and the story behind it as well so emotional…cosmofunnel, lol…been there over a year, now…will have to write a book one day on all that has happened with me on that site; the good the bad and the ugly…Tony you and many others have been the good, I can just say that my friend…not sucking up, but your poetry and friendship alone is enough of a reason to come on cosmo…Godspeed bud
