Debi, you have become the FS pro at this merry-go-rhyme format. Another fun tribute to another FS member - it amazes me (1) that you can keep these so fresh, and (2) that you know so much personal background about our fellow writers. God, bless.
-Chuck

This was a wonderful Merry-go-Rhyme, Debi. I loved the picture. This was indeed a fantastic. My belated wishes to Papa Mike for a Happy Birthday, what better wishes that Shynoa graduates at the same time. Well wishes to all three. Blessings n Hugs!

Thank you, Debi, for this lovely poem wishing Papa Mike a belated Happy Birthday. You are such a blessing on here. What is your secret of keeping track of everyone's birthday, and knowing so much much about them?

I have read some of his work. I do remember how he wove his faith throughout the piece. I've only gotten two reviews from him this go round for me. But he pointed out things that others didn't notice. Wonderful poem. Thanks for posting. Gretchen

What a sweet birthday poem for Papa Mike you've written, Debi. I've always enjoyed getting a review from him, and I enjoy his work too.

It's so nice that you help us get to know this FanStory family better with your very thoughtful birthday poems with some biographical details. You help us all to think of FS as our extended family, and it's much appreciated. Love, Jim

A beautiful and wonderful birthday poem to a wonderful guy, Papa Mike. Your words captured perfectly exactly who he is and introduces him to those members who have not had the pleasure.
Best regards,
Mary

Debi, I've gotten to know PapaMike a bit since my return to FanStory by his posts and reviews. He is a guy anyone would like to have as a friend!
Your birthday wishes to him are as always directed toward the individual, not some cookie cutter clutter!

Have a great Hump Daaaay
John

That's a very nice poem for Papa Mike. His birthday is on Australia's Anzac Day, a very special day for us. You's selected his very fine qualities and paid him a lovely tribute. He'sll be very pleased!

Typo: "Birthday's" should be "birthdays" (plural, not possessive)
