Notes About The Poem

Hey, Lyric Man

Hey, Lyric Man
My praise...don’t ban
Cause if you do
I’ll kick your can! ;)

You’re awfully nice
I’ll pay the price
to read your words
not once, but twice

Your thoughts you share
Tempered with care
You sprinkle sugar
Everywhere

You've got the beat
Each rhyme, a treat
I must indulge
a taste, so sweet

With heart and soul
You reach your goal
To make us feel
Complete and whole

So here’s to you
Hope this will do
To let you know
You’re special...too.

Your words: a drug!
So, yes! Feel smug!
with words of mine....
I send... this.....hug!

AWESOME tribute poem. This suits Lyric man to a Tee!!! And the picture is really cool. Can you believe we live in an age where we can just google it and find pictures to convey our ideas like this one you found? Glad I came back and found this poem to read. I am trying to be current with all your latest poems, and this is one I had missed!

Thank you, my dear poet. Lyric Man wrote a lovely tribute to me for the contest. It is a lovely piece, and I thought this would be a nice way to thank him, but at the time there were other poems about him. So, today something got me to think about posting him this poem. I do hope that he likes it. :) I hope all is well with you. Filakia poli.
