Milt would comment on my poems and make me feel real nice He was friendly as one could be and there was never any price He ran poetry contests that were hard and made you use your brain He loved poetrysoup and the soupers all the same But now he's up in heaven where he's probably writing too He's penning awesome poetry for his wife there too I wish I could be as wonderful as this man was he was an idol and a role model that gave out lots of love

Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, by God's grace, I greet you with the peace and joy from the Lord toward a prosperous New Year 2023 along this present: "the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23 of the King James Bible). Thanks likewise for my placement in your recently judged contest. God bless you.

Robert, a beautiful tribute to Milton, well done, he would love it ! He was all the things you wrote and will be so missed. My heart is broken in a thousand pieces. In his very last poem, Milt ends it with the words, Bye - Bye Don't cry, how can we not cry, those words will haunt me for a long time, blessings
