Hi Bear nice meeting you. This poejm I wrote on our old mate Michael Cahill has been a real hit. Some of the folks in here have senses of humour pretty bland or droll or dry or something and did not understand where I was coming from but we all like Michael as he has helped so many of us. Thanks heaps and will look ut for your stuff have a LOT of people I need to check out now! Cheers from Down Under!

Ah, Haddock. I grew up eating baked Haddock, topped with crushed Ritz cracker crumbs. Oh, how I hated fish night. This was a fun tribute to read. I enjoyed the tone very much. Thank you for sharing. Be well and always write.

Comment from Jackarrie
A humorous tribute poem to your friend, I enjoyed the flow of it down the page, the rhyming is good, there are some typos. I feel the spacing was too far apart, I personally would like the lines closer.
I am sure your friend Mikey is very happy with it. I will look up his profile.

Look for Michael Cahill's profile. Yeah I wondered about the spacing. FS editor was mucking me around had to delete and repaste to get rid of an "A" problem. Will look into the spacing and hope it does not mess up aqain spelling errors were deliberate ok! Thanks nice meeting you.
Comment from Ekim777
Our poet deftly show his appreciation and is very warm about it. The pair seem to be kindred spirits. But best of all is our writer's sense of humor and humor is a fine yardstick for measuring creative work. -Ekim777

thanks Ekim nice meeting you. Like the 'kindred spirits' suggestion as Michael and I have felt that way for a long time even though we are from either end of the world. We are about the same age and remember a lot of the same things. Appreciate the review.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I bet Mikey was thrilled with this poem of yours, it is fun, and rolls down the page with an even flow. I must go and take a look at him again. :) Sandra

You've written a heartfelt Ode to Mikey, Sankey, extolling his concerns, talents and virtues. It's good to have appreciative friends, and you are certainly one. Well done. :) Nancy

Thanks Nancy boy we have had so many wonderful reviews for this mad poem idea. Some of the political correctors have been through and gone crook about the deliberate mistake in Spelling coz actually Michael does the same thing himself all. the time hehe! I am going to write another poem about some's senses of humour haha! (Non-existent or very dry or droll!!) Cheers, and thanks.
Comment from DanielEkine
Mikey really does a great job. This poem dedicated to his contribution supports the reality of his efforts. Great job by the author for such recognition piece. Nicely done with unique rhymes and flow. aabb at work.

Comment from rama devi
This is a fun tribute to our dear MIkey.
I likey! While there is a bit much in terms of poetic license and some somewhat forced rhymes (as well as amusingly inventive rhyming)...it works well and is entertaining. Good bouncy beat. The satirical overtones make the above issues work as part of the style.
One spag:
With whit and wisdom
WIT not WHIT
Bet Mikey Likey-d this too!
Warmly,

Hi friend thanks. Not sure about the whit or wit you are probably right but with all the other mispellings no one else has picked it up hehe! had all the boring types going on about my 'roem' to rhyme with poem and all that. Found out there are Haddocks in New York so go figure huh! Thanks again.
-
WIT is definitely right there, I assure you.
WHIT is not.
You're welcome.
-
I agree and I may go in and change it but not doting eyes and crossing tee's on thius bit of a rave on my dear friend MIkey. I even discussed the CAHILL pronunciation as we pronounce it different Down Under as well hehe. Thanks mate.
-
There you are I fixed wit ok! happy now! You and all the other correctors out there can sleep better tonight ha! Just joshing ok! Tnanks a lot!
-
It does not take much effort to fix a glaring spelling error. I can sleep just fine whether you fix it or not. Your choice. :)
Comment from Tsukuyomi969
It is about time someone do him honor. Beside that great piece about improving FS--which was what we were all thinking but afraid to say--his comments on works and answers to questions are very clear and helpful. I am having a little trouble with "roem", lol but overall I really liked this.

It rhymed with Poem ok and Mikey and I have one more thing in common we are both Tangent men hence the reference to going of into the paddock (roaming) we have found so many areas we are similar in. Our ages and our musical interest and all that. Thanks for the review it was meant to be a bit silly and I was not seeking grammatical and spelling perfection. I mean as everyone has seen I spelled Krikey wrong too hehe. Thanks again.

I'm the last one to say anything about your spelling lol. I recently did a poem with the word "nevermorey" :) Hey, Shakespeare came up with new words all the time, why can't we?
