I didn't know August and haven't read any of his work, but since reading excerpts that have been shared, I sure wish I had. I'm sorry for his daughter and families' loss. Thanks for sharing.

A great tribute to this fine author who so many seemed to admire. I'm sorry that I never had the opportunity to have gotten to know of him and about him. Very nice tribute.

What a beautiful testament to someone who obviously gave love and compassion to many, whilst suffering themselves. We would all like to be remembered as good people, and your excellent poem has summed up so much that was achieved by this wonderful man.

I hate hearing about more of our family of author's passing over, it's happening too often. I'm glad you liked my tribute, Linda, I found it quite hard to write and get in all my thoughts about him. He was an incredible man, kind and generous. I do hope Amber will like it. Thank you, sweet friend, for the sixth star. Love you so much, back. 🥰 xxxxx Sandra xxx

This is such a beautiful and poignant poem. I rhymes well and the imagery is gorgeous. I'm sorry I wasn't here long enough to get to know August. He sounds like he was a wonderful person. My sympathy goes out to his family, friends and all who knew him.

It's always hard to write a tribute to one of our own. He was a remarkable man, wasn't he. Thank you so much for reading my tribute, Roy, you words mean such a lot. Love and hugs, my friend. Sandra xx

Your tribute is very well written. Your words express your appreciation for someone who brought inspiration to so many on here. From what I am reading, he was not in good health, but persevered to share his thoughts. My sympathy to his family.
