I have a habit of cruising not only the Newsgroups but 
different online srevices also. I started out on Prodigy
and it's still my major homebase as those who know me 
there can attest. P* has just opened it's Internet
gateway, but for many there the access is blocked. Tina's
one of them. I've enjoyed her poems and brought them here
in hopes you all will to. These were taken from our
bulletin board system there and sent as text. Hope they
work. In this case please send all responses to me,
Gyrfalcon@delphi.com, as on Prodigy it costs us to 
recieve mail from internet. I'll forward them to Tina
as I promised her when she gave permission to send these.
These are also going to mtp034.mtp.semi.harris.com.
Thanks. Enjoy!

hi guys. i wrote this poem while enduring in-school         
torture. hope you like it.                                  
                                                            
            poem to scully                                  
                                                            
as i lie alone in the dark, my mind returns to you          
i can't help wondering where you are and what you're going  
through                                                     
                                                            
i became so used to your presence, i took for granted you   
were here                                                   
                                                            
now that you are suddenly gone, i'd give anything to have   
you near.                                                   
                                                            
you were the only one i trusted, you were the only one who  
cared                                                       
i knew you'd never betray me, or tell the secrets that we   
shared.                                                     
                                                            
your oppinion means the world to me, your every smile i     
treasured so long                                           
                                                            
i never knew how much i cared for you until one day you were
gone                                                        
                                                            
you always stood beside me, no matter what i said or did    
and you never chose to question all the secrets that i hid  
                                                            
you risked life and limb for me, without a selfish thought  
to spare                                                    
                                                            
you taught me how to trust again, and showed me that you    
cared                                                       
                                                            
if only i had told you this while you were still here       
                                                            
that you'll never come back to me is the only thing i fear  
i pray each day that you'll come back soon, because my heart
can't stand the pain                                        
                                                            
i do not want to entertain the thought that i may never see 
you again                                                   
                                                            
so until the day we meet again and my pain is laid to rest  
                                                            
of all the partners i have known, dana scully you are the   
best                                                        
                      mulder

 hope you liked it. sorry its so long

for those who enjoyed my last poem i wrote a new one.       
                                                            
                     trust noone                            
                                                            
all my life i've played by my own rules, relying on noone   
but myself                                                  
i openly admitted all my beliefs, but kept my heart upon a  
shelf                                                       
                                                            
trust noone was my motto, and i followed it like a religion 
                                                            
convinced the world was against me, and noone understood my 
vision                                                      
                                                            
when we first crossed paths, i thought you were like all the
rest                                                        
i wasn't going to give you a chance, i was sure you'd fail  
the test                                                    
                                                            
but you opened up your world to me, and showed me i was     
wrong                                                       
                                                            
you proved i didn't have to walk alone in order to be strong
                                                            
now trust noone seems so out of place, since i learned i    
could trust you                                             
i don't see how i couldn't after all that we've been through
                                                            
you'd put yourself on the line for me, no matter what the   
cost                                                        
                                                            
if i had to live my life without you i'm sure i would be    
lost                                                        
                                                            
although i once trusted noone, i trust you now and forever  
                                                            
i no longer fear the road ahead, as long as we're together  
                                                            
----------------------------------------------------------
well thats it. hoped you liked it. i'll work up a new one   
for the next time i'm on the board. bye

i'm posting a new poem, and a sincere apology to my "fans". 
i'm afriad that i neglected to mention, when i posted the   
last two poems, that this is not richard writing, but his 16
year old daughter.tina. i'm sorry if this is disappointing, 
but it's the truth. well, heres my new one anyway.          
-------------------------------------------------------------
                Anyone But You                           
my world was neat and balanced, i always played by the rules
                                                            
believing in the unknown and pushing the limits, was        
something left for fools                                    
                                                            
i chose what to believe carefully, i put everything to the   
test                                                        
                                                            
i trusted only what was written in stone, and disregaurded  
all the rest                                                
the day that i first met you, i swore you were out of your  
mind                                                        
                                                            
you always seemed to be searching, for something you could  
never find                                                  
                                                            
you told me the truth was out there, and to you that ment   
everything                                                  
                                                            
you said you were going to seek it out, despite the         
consequences it might bring                                 
at first i tried to distance myself, from your cause and    
your struggle to believe                                    
                                                            
but now that we have grown so close, i know i could never   
leave                                                       
                                                            
you turned my world upsidedown and shook me to my core      
                                                            
you opened up my narrow sight, and showed me so much more   
                                                            
you turned the impossible into reality, and proved the >>>> 
exsistance of the unknown                                   
                                                            
i don't know how to thank you for all the wonders i've been 
shown                                                       
                                                            
you lent to me your strength, and blessed me with your trust
                                                            
you taught me how to seek the truth, and fight for what is  
just                                                        
                                                            
your friendship means the world to me, and after all that>>>
we've been thruogh                                          
                                                            
i could never open my mind, my heart, my soul, to anyone but
you                                                         
                                                            
and after all is said and done, i swear these words are true
                                                            
i could never feel this way, about anyone but you           
                                                            
-------------------------
