This is just too humorous to pass by--a fun writing on a serious poetic Fanstory issue;
Spot-on rhyme makes for a more humorous read, as the battle of Mikey and Tom begins;
I read Michael's prose--he brings some imperative matters to light.

    Hi there not sure we have met before. Glad you are on track with what he is trying to achieve. I do find it a bit fdrustrating with the points system I don't mind reading good stories even if the points are low but it does seem queer that a short poem can get big points but a story of 2000 words or something only gets a few points when it takes the time to read them. Thanks for the review.

This is a fun little series of limericks. Mikey is cool and I like your little tribute to him. He is valued member of FS.

This is funny! My boss says, "Krikey", all the time and it makes me laugh all the time. It reminds me of the crocodile hunter and I loved that man! He was so entertaining. So sad when he died.

Your poem was very funny, it has made my morning ;)
It brought such a smile to my face and I needed that.

Thank you

Hi Sankey - This is a good, amusing and well rhymed poem. I guessed immediately who you were referring to but have not read his views on improving things on FS. Must do so! Enjoyable read. Kind regards - Dorothy

Hello there~!
Oh I love this poem! The title especially is very attractive with rhyming words.
Yes, I have read the wonderful article michaelcahill posted not long ago, and I totally agree. Some changes need to be made.
Good Job!

JazakAllah Khair~!

Mikey roams around this website spreading talent, passion and positivity in his wake. He's easily the most imaginative and flexible poet/writer going around. His work is always highly original and written in that unique witty way. He supports other authors with excellent feedback. I reviewed his essay and agree with what you say. Your whimsical poet in honour of the man is fun to read and will give him a real 'kick'.

This is cleverly done. I like the conversational tone and use of dialect. This is an interesting topic, and I read Michael's post about the FS situation of member dollars and points being the same for poetry and longer prose works. He made a good point. Your rhyme and flow in this both work out well. You carry a jaunty tone throughout. judi

We sure have haddock where I'm from in England and we say 'Crikey", too! I already sent my comments to Mikey on his article and I agree with what he is trying to do, also. Great whimsical rhyme in support of a good cause. Enjoyable read, Faye

    Thanks Faye yeah it is Crikey we got it from 'Old Dart' I am sure. I just wanted to be a bit different. See my poem song about Being Different in my Book of Poultry. Thanks again. Not sure if we have met before. This started out ads a one verser but it grew like Topsy hehe. No one from UNcle Sam has said they have Haddock yet either hehe. Cheers.

    You're very welcome, I don't think you have reviewed my poetry, but I definitely read your Fishing trip story. We are more connoisseurs of fish (+chips, maybe)Brits and Australians, I think! Faye

I suppose there are many ways to improve Fan Story. The best one yet is get rid of the bias faceless committee who judges the contest. They are most assuredly bias. Cute poem. Mike, I than you have a new fan.
