kyels, one of mGf in the plural, and regular conversationists here, wrote that the NAME arrived at by gritty nitty Primrose -- how appropriate in the field of springtime blooms! Challengee for OUR I-LAND -- spiritedestination -- is "awesome". I like her description, apt and crisp.
Yes, the name is awesome, cos it was an INSpiraTION thingy, thanks to the "commonest" nick budded, bloomed and flowered in our cyber gardens, SssssSpirit, who at this moment=to=moment, is taking a "long" (living to her co-inspirator's NAME)hiatus.
I didn't realise that mGf from Down Under was "serious" until she responded to one of my comments when I visited her at http://sweetspirits.blogspot.com. But today, I'll remind her again, "hiatus" means just that "a break" from blogging, we take you for your word you'll be back. "Again" was because several weeks back, she said in one post she was planning to "close" down her blog altogether. Many fRiends urged her, including Desi, just to take that "hiatus" and come back, refreshed and re-energised. I too reiterate the call today, take that break -- yes, GO BREAK A LEG! -- come back, renewed and rasing to go, like my "horse wind".
Spring has just dawned on these Lucky OZ folks, and by extension also NZ (where allgrownup Sabrina dwells, and swells), the younger sister or brother -- in 21st century, the lad' doesn't know whether it's mail or femail, neither does Desi!:).
It's easy1 to write today's post because it's written from the deepest wells of my heART, which combines two luvly words, he and ART -- see, even on a Monday , Desiderata wants to impose his bloody Ingerris tuition on us.
Another reason it's easy2 is that I'm resorting to CUT&PASTE, just wait&4!

SssssSpirit:
I know you enjoy song and dance.
So as you ove on, I want to remind you of this "Liverpool
anthem":
When Sab worte on FAITH RALLY...I "borrowed" if off her. Also I do have faith. My faith in the Almighty.
Who makes the Stars and the Moons and the Earth.
Who oversees human behaviour and oversights the governance of Man on Earth.
Who rules our Day, our Night.
Wo makes me wonder
As a Child, as an Adult, and as the Me-in-the-Future.
I just know because I have Faith--
I’ll Never Be Alone.
So SssssSpirit:
You'll Never Walk Alone
When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There's a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown..
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.
(Richard Rodgers (1902-1979) – music, Oscar Hammerstein II(1895-1960) – lyrics)
PS: pls continue to "log" by at Desi's, kyels, sab's so we can continue our home-y chats and to remind each other, We'll never walk alone.

So i never walk alone as God is my guide.Thank you again for your comment and for making me feel at home at your blog, it can be my cyber home .You know your blog is a comfort to many bcoz you relate to others and i thank you for taking the time reply to my comments .

DESIDERATA ends, with some saulty H2O flowing somewhere?, with this short message: "SssssSpitit -- The piping-hot (like thee?) teh tarik from Haridas is waiting her for thee, Hari Hari does it!"EasyDoesIt3!!!
Also, REP:RISING:
It's just adieu
I miss you so, my friend
A daily diet of AM
now is denied me
I miss the invigoration
The quality words
the beautiful lines
I hope AMigo
I'll see your face again
Smiling to greet me at early morn
I drank of your wine, made of
Grapes of soothing rhyme
Songs of knowledge sublime
But you said it's time
To ring down the curtain
As the money has run dry
I wish I could write out
A cheque for a million
To make you AM stay
I pray it's just adieu
And not goodbye.

Farewell, doesn't it mean goodbye? Then again, adieu? What the heck, see you later...
We always have farewell parties for people who are going off to someplace but then they will more often come back.
testing only...
don't know why when I tested access via PPS: advised that pop up closed access to this Blog...???

Thanks for eraly response -- your post crossed path as I was posting up the Test Message. Thanks2 for the relief, I was a li'l worrried spirits lifting raeders such as thee can't reach Desi and may think I'm also MOVING ON...
No worries, I'm still here serving piping hot TTarik as a sort of "Adios" -- NOT fare thee well -- party...for SS...on our spanking new, prim and rosey, A&Awesome ..................spiritedestination!
iNATION!
Hi Desi ty
There will be no time to miss me, i shall be here nagging you as always :).
Have a gr8 day my friend n tcz
hey ssspirits...
sorry to have missed all the conversations above.
it's sad to see you go, cos i've only known you recently...but if you believe that this is the better choice, then move on it shall be and have fun doing other things :)
do drop by our places often ( esp now with the new home of mine..heheh) and we shall offer thee a teh tarik...or Merlot, which one you prefer...
and may God bless you richly...hopefully will see you in your bloggin mode some time soon :D
cheers matey!
Desi,
Missing Sssssspirit so much. Hmmm. But am sure she will be here nagging you.. Tsk. Hehehe.
Well, glad that you've composed a Farewell song to her.
Yup, "awesome" is the word for the new name of our I-Land. Lo and behold. Hehe.
Hi SssssspiriT:
Grrrrrr...8 to hear thy Voice again -- if you nag me, I shall greet thee with a Grrrrrr...owl, like tigers do.
(Just now at Desi's I heard some crying, I opened the golden gate, saw twas kyels shedding salty H20, and that's serious. She was missing you,Sweets, so I will entertain even your nags, just make it short and sweet!;)
If you make it long & fierce, I'll descend (some protesteth that I ascend) into olde Ingerris like I takut lu, I tak dengah stengah whatUsay! (seek bro Im, gone MIA again! or sis Sab's translation! I hear Sab wanders into the Perthian springtime showers often - vitim of Nostalgia - I hear the Haze has gone!)
Right hear IN, Left 'ear OUT! Sama computer lingo tau -- giGO!
Nah, it's nothin' OBscene like gigolo or watgolo ... just so that there is NO MisSunderstanding, it's "Garbage In, Garbage Out", so OZ lad' like Sweets can't accuse me of committing proFUNity at spiritedestination, we're very civilised there!
SS, Adieu,
Be seeing you.
Sab:
I also want Merlot -- isit some NZ wonder I haven't tasted Down Under. I did merlion, mermaid, merMUR! or shafts, I overdid myself, and you're talkong to Sweets. How rude of this hostess!
Sab, maybe I'll go on Hiatus for a few months, enjoy springtime in Paris on the Riber Rhine where damamemoseilles don't nag, and the gomen don't gag, and Desi wont sag -- I really what the last means, just wanted to rhyme!
WoW, Sab, I like your new home -- is that in Perth or still at Dunedin ? -- I want to make sure in case Sweets goes hibernating there comes Winter.
Nag, gag, sag>>>HAG! I didn't say that, it's the Bard acting up.
kyels:
The "farewell" song also CUT&PASTE one! I told you it's was EASY4!
Maybe that's the next Challenge 5, guess what does AM stand for, give the best RAT-ionale, mosey1 also can! -- what the F/H (pick1! can of getting it right is so-so, meaning 50-50, 4see?) is Desi talkong about -- overdozed on HariDas' TT!
kyels, here, take some tissue, don't go philosophical no more cos OZ fRen wants to nag, gag, hag thee after me is gonna Bungkus, or isit Bonkers!
Hey kyels&SssssSpirit: "Jumpa lagi":):) -- what does "Insya-Allah" mean?
Insya-Allah.. Hmm.. Wait.. I think it means "hopefully".
Cheers!
Insya Allah-- I think more correctly put is "God Willing"
Desi: Thy new abode is my dream place...not in NZ nor Aus...
Perhaps make a guess?
Merlot, I shall give thee...
And may thee enjoy it fully
What shall we toast to
The spring, the abode or the adieu?
Hi Desi
Yes Sab is correct Insya Allah means God Willing.
So Desi was in a happy mood last night, teasing as always hehe.
I promise not to nag too much hehe.
Okz Desi im off to say hi to Sab n Kyels i shall be back later cheerz
Where art thou Desi
tsk tsk no new post ooops im nagging, well i am off to do some cleaning.
Btw instead of blogging i am selling things on ebay :) and it is time consuming but its all good .
cheers tcz
Hi Sab & Kyels:
I was just testing SssssSpirit in her Bahasa Malaysia lessons when I asked about Insya-Allah ...I was subtly 'Rebranding" SS for on SpiriteDestination, theofficail lingo is a fuuny mix of OZ, BM and Ingerrr...rrris. The most conversant in those 3 lingo will rule the I-LAND for a year, plus 1 more year for performance, subject to Desi's preparedness to relinguish the post (4, I've learnt from the BN ppl!) ...hehehe HAHaHa .. .
SssssSpirit: Today's post was delayed becos I planned for GOoDNewsweek from tomorrow, but Stark (naked? that may be profane in Mcak's vocab, so I refrain!) Reality dictates I go direct-in-the-Face off with the Issue ...check this out an hour from now, it's reading 10,00am here now.
PS: to the 3Masketeers?:
Marketeers?
OR biting ones, Moskuitoes!
kyels sells the I-LAND membership;
now Sweets is selling on Ebay;
Sab is selling her Romance No(?)-vel.
Hey, Sweets, see if you can get RM20million for desiderata2000 on eBay? OK, bargainable to RM19.99million also can1! We can raise the balance RM0.01million, which is equal to RM10,000 which between us, is sap-sap-sui-leh!!!!:):);):)
Insya-Allah, I get up that "depressing" post by 11.30am, another 1/2 hr more lingering here
kay=pohing with 3Impossibles...Okz, 3 TTarik to thee:)
Wondering aloud where is Primrose after she gotaway with R-o-m-a-n-c-e -- Sab, check her out for some input for thy R=Nobel!
