Milton Creek Weeps There's a kind of hush over Milton Creek All residents are in shock and they weep For gambler Milt who's no longer around The kindest ever to have graced the town. To honour Milt the Creek has been renamed Look down from heaven Milt 'cause you're proclaimed For friendships made and poetic art Milton Creek's courteous bard of our hearts. Milt Gently may you sleep in heavenly peace. *+*+* 6th January 2023

Lovely write, Belle. I think Soup could do with a category called ‘Milton’, I reckon it’d be the most frequently selected category right now. Terry
