Cardboard & Polyester

 Ryan,

I just realized that when I give this to you it will most likely be the last time I see you, so this poem I write should explain and say everything I have wanted to say for a long time.


Shadows of darkness fall upon the day.

Time slips through the flesh-colored fingers.

Words that could never express float through the air.

Within reach.

Time steals one's very soul and twists it into ribbons of truth.

So close, but never to know.

The casting light grows dim.

It's never too late.

~ Jill Maulik   1998


Wherever life may lead you, may you go with a song in your heart!

Keep on truckin'


So, you've graduated, and I'm, like, all "new hat size for the mondo brain." You must know, like, everything! I'm really proud of your accomplishments, but I would advise against too many pictures in the cap and gown -- cardboard and polyester is SO "not you"!

Congratulations! I'm so proud of you!

I Love You! You'll always be one of my best friends.


Jillian Maulik

I hope we meet again.

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
