Sweet Jane 61 Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Forever A Little Girl Blue A beauty in her way she was feeling inferior to all around Pulling from her soul a phenomenal voice Being alone was never her choice. Searching for a love to embrace finding solice from needles and pills her fate it seemed to be the little girl blue numerous fears and doubts seeping through. Night after night the faces became a blur sharing her pain and heartache with thousands yearning for kindred spirit to entwine desperate not to be the one left behind. A beloved pearl to countless admirers their love to her was never satisfying she left with no indication and no goodbye Many still wonder with questions of why.
Uncle Joe Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Very nice. A sad tribute to a great talent.
Earth-Angel Posted April 21, 2006 Report Posted April 21, 2006 You know what amazes me - is just how much talent we have contributing to the Creative Writing section on a regular basis! Thank you to all who post, read and comment - we have a lot here to be proud of
Sweet Jane 61 Posted April 21, 2006 Author Report Posted April 21, 2006 Thanks Joe....it is easy to write about Janis.
Sweet Jane 61 Posted April 21, 2006 Author Report Posted April 21, 2006 Thanks Laurie....but don't tell everyone about my special talent!!
Steel2Velvet Posted April 21, 2006 Report Posted April 21, 2006 Thought provoking work, Jane. Raises that old question of what really brings fulfillment to a life? Talent, fame, financial success do not seem to be what it takes; though many seek those things with pointed diligence. Thanks for this reminder to examine motive, by way of a fine wistful tribute, Jane.
Sweet Jane 61 Posted April 21, 2006 Author Report Posted April 21, 2006 Thanks Ron, I felt at times I was writing about myself and people I have known in my life. I believe Janis was like all of us, wanting a love to fill her soul. The fame was never enough, as it shouldn't be.

Earth-Angel Posted April 21, 2006 Report Posted April 21, 2006 I wanted to compliment Sweet Jane on her poem specifically, which is really good (as always ) I don't know very much about Janis Joplin, but there is a strong story and essence of her in your words. Thank you for sharing Sweet Jane. And also to compliment everyone who contributes their original works for us all to read, comment on and help improve (where asked for). Without all of your contributions, this forum would not be as successful or alive as it is. Thanks everybody!
Lucky Posted April 22, 2006 Report Posted April 22, 2006 Thanks Ron, I felt at times I was writing about myself and people I have known in my life. I believe Janis was like all of us, wanting a love to fill her soul. The fame was never enough, as it shouldn't be. I felt that Jane. I am a big Janis fan, and I appreciate your lovely words, on behalf of her, and the rest of us....
Rayzor Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Beautiful... You really do have a talent for writing. I wish I could be half as good!
