I dedicate this poem to Milton Hankins, in ParticipatIng in Andreas un-contest contest ' I started to Know you, and you were gone.' At times you were Prickly yet that began to thaw, you spoke from your Mind of that I'm sure' I sensed the honesty and value Such' I see many here miss you; you had their trust.! As a footnote the name Milton is the condensed of Milltown.' Which may mean Miltons ancestors came From such a town.? And my entry lines allude to such Or maybe its just a name picked st random Andrea might know?

Whirling thoughts yet mindful of forms Turn names observing; your letters borne' To the flowing race' unconscious streaming Guddling in grace to beam of myrid meanings Mill-town forebears, cast your form quite fine A boon to your peers here' hear hear.! I stand to applaud; the depth, of Miltons lines.'

His prescence was felt here..I Certainly felt it also.' And he was Not at heart hard.' He was true Enough to look for amity and put Enmity to one side.' Thank you For commenting'
