This is a lovely tribute to Michael and his memory. He will definitely be missed here on FS. As you put your exceptional talent to use, you draw all of us into a literary moment of silence as we say goodbye with you. Very beautifully done.

Thank you for writing this beautiful tribute to Michael. I know he is smiling down on this poem. He was a friend and great encouragement. I always looked forward to his reviews. I always knew them to be honest, fair, and encouraging.

Recently I lost my mom and this really touched me. I like "Now heaven has another scribe." You can sense the emotion and loss. Sorry for the loss of your friend.

Nicely said, Dean. To be remembered and cherished is a treasure indeed, and in this regard, Michael Cahill died a very rich man. He was most generous with advice and made a difference in the lives of many people, as is evidenced by the tributes which continue to pour in.

What a beautiful tribute to Michael. Your third stanza is especially poignant. While I did not know him, I can tell by the poetry that is coming forth from you and others that he was very well liked and respected.
My best to you.
Connie

Hi, Dean,

I think so many of us are still in shock about Mike's death - it is just strange. I have no idea of how to write what I feel inside. I think it is largely because though I know all of you are REAL people - you all live in the part of my brain where my characters live.

How could Mikey be gone? I didn't have that in the outline of the book,

This is a touching and lovely tribute to your friend, Dean. Image is beautiful. You and I focused on the same theme here:
"Now heaven has another precious scribe,"
God bless him.
