Michael

Hello Sunshine, Good day World May I but sip from the Chalice Rain, a rose, Quiet repose The Warm that is Linda Alice written by Michael in 1975 (I found this handwritten poem in an old box of memorabilia. I submit it not as an ego post, but as a tribute to a mentor who is no longer with us. He encouraged and supported me in our work that was challenging and heartbreaking. It was offered me as a small respite from that work and to give me a smile. I did not change punctuation or capitalization. It had no title - I thought his name would be appropriate. I also thought it should be documented with smiles and fondest memories.)

Gosh, this is so ultra-sweet. It must have touched you deeply when you saw it again, in spite of a tear or two shed.
