Shirley Hawkins Poet Rhyme

Straight From My Heart

I have just had a look to see
What interesting comments
Rico and Milt have left for me
I am upset and sad to say
Both of these fine poets
Have passed away.
I miss these two accomplished men,
Who will never write to me again?
I feel an urgent need to say
I feel honoured that you came my way,
RIP

Heidi Sands December 30, 2022 at 6:24 PM Well said. They are missed so much. Take care :) Shirley Hawkins December 30, 2022 at 6:45 PM Incredibly, friendships can be formed by poets' written words when you have never met them. Thank you, Heidi, for your comment. Happy New Year to you and yours. Look after yourself, Shirley
