linder4love07: ok
BUZZ!!!
linder4love07: A flower grows from beneath a blanket
Of fine and purest white
It reaches toward the sun for warmth,
For heat and for the light

My love for you grows stronger still,
Despite the surrounding cold
My heart is yours, bartered gone
For yours has it been sold

Its petals shine from morning dew
Its stem grows stiff and strong
It stands strong through the freezing cold
It stands the winter long

I long for you, for your soft touch
I miss the way you smile
The longer that we stay apart
The longer every mile

The flower stretches through the snow
It reaches toward the sun
And now without you the color is gone
The flower's petals, dun

But as we talk, and as we learn
The flower comes back to life
The snow now melts and goes away
As you take away my strife

Spring is here and growth abounds
As you a
linder4love07: i have send the poem now
BUZZ!!!
me: I see it.. thanks
linder4love07: do u need more

me: you need thousands of dollars to get a visa
linder4love07: yea
linder4love07: is only 1000$
me: only $1000?
linder4love07: yea
me: I'd like someone to send me $1000 if I sent them a sexy picture
linder4love07: or any amount u have
me: actually no.. a visa is $100 but you have to show you have sufficient economic ties to nigeria to not risk overstaying your visa
me: so if you are poor you won't get a visa..
linder4love07: yea
linder4love07: and i will like to do my passpoey
me: what's that?
linder4love07: i mean passport
BUZZ!!!
me: what about it?
linder4love07: i have to use at off the money to do it
linder4love07: ok?
me: but you won't get a visa.. so me sending you money won't do anything for me
linder4love07: so any amount u have u can use it to help me
me: what do I get out of it?
linder4love07: i will come over there to visite u
me: but you're poor.. you won't qualify for a visa

linder4love07: there is one off my brother dat is working there
linder4love07: i dont do dat
linder4love07: in my life
BUZZ!!!
BUZZ!!!
me: well like I said.. you're like a stranger on the street walking up and asking for money
me: I can't tell if you're real or not
linder4love07: ok am real a girl
linder4love07: i cant lie 4 u
me: why not?]
me: you mean no one ever lies on the net?
linder4love07: there are many people but not like me
me: I see... so help me out here... how do you tell the difference?
linder4love07: you see,i have a believe that what comes out from whats not real will be a conscience to me in my heart
BUZZ!!!
me: but people I know are lying to me tell me the same thing...
me: see my predicament?
linder4love07: you see there is a saying which i always stick to is that what ever you dont work for wont last

BUZZ!!!
me: well if she's so ill why do you want to rush off to Ameirca?
linder4love07: no i dont really want to rush her to america i wanted some help from you over there,we are financially broke
me: so you weren't really going to use the money for a visa to come see me.. you just told me that to get me to send you money
linder4love07: let come to talk of it ,if what you send to me is enough for me to treat my mother and come to see you i will do it
me: well you lied to me... you didn't tell me about your mother...
linder4love07: no it was some thing that happened overnight which we have to rush her to the hospital
linder4love07: it's not lie
me: well you only started talking to me 30 minutes ago
me: so you knew about it when you were asking me to bring you over here
linder4love07: he problem is let forget about the issue,please you think i am lying to you upon the reasons i laid?
linder4love07: what are you up to
me: I have a hobby
linder4love07: what
me: tormenting african scam artists
linder4love07: what does that mean
me: it's means I've known from the start you are fake...
me: it's not you in the picture
me: you're probably not 23
me: you're probably not female
linder4love07: excuse me
me: you're just looking for people you can take advantge of and get them to send you money
linder4love07: lets talk of realistic you what are you taking me for
me: I thought my last remarks were very realistic..
me: how are you going to prove otherwise?
linder4love07: please let me out of this mess
me: why you don't want to play any more?
me: you're not very convincing.. but better then some...
me: at least you didn't pretend you were American
me: but thanks... I have a web site where I post all these chats... it give a lot of people a lot of laughs
