Goodbye Rico

Blog Posted by Margarita Lillico : 2/4/2023 8:34:00 AM

I just found out another dear poet is no longer with us. R.I.P. Rico

He’s the master of limerick quirks!
He has charmed PS with witty smirks!

His wit, quite dry,

Hits a bullseye,

That is how Rico's wry mindset works! 2022

I feel deep sorrow and grief, my dear pal,

Craving comments from a distant island,

I shall savour your poems and I shall

Miss your heartwarming presence, now silent. 2023
