How you could keep all of these straight is quite remarkable. I don't think Mike will mind a belated birthday greeting. I tell my classmates we deserve to celebrate for a month. So he should still be celebrating.

It never hurts and is always appreciated when we acknowledge our loving admiration of those who are near and dear to our hearts. It is always a good thing to embrace and express our loving admiration of those for whom we have great admiration and esteem. This was a great poem, and I enjoyed reading it very much.

Again! You really keep on top of the birthday wishes here...and I'm impressed with not only your poetry, but how personally you've come to know so many here!

Wives, children, grandchildren and more...no "cookie cutter" generalizations ever!

You're really something, Debi!

You've been busy writing birthday poems! I'm sure Papa Mike appreciates this cute Merry-Go-Rhyme with all of its great rhymes. I appreciate that you put so much about him in your poem, so we can get to know him better. Blessings. Carol

    Thanks again Carol!
    PS - And anytime you want to send me some info about you, I am starting some of my June poems before my eye surgeries start. I will still be able to post them, but would like to have some done ahead of time.

    Oh, fun! (birthday poem, not eye surgeries!) When is your birthday?

Hi Debi, your birthday poem to Papa Mike is beautifully penned, and it is a poem that anyone would be thrilled to receive. Your poem reads and flows well, and your message is clear. Of special note:

He's such a kind and gentle soul, so this I'll testify
He seems like an old friend; you'll never meet a nicer guy

(The essence of Mike.)

Well done. Good rhyming. A pleasure to read. This poem made me smile. Xo. M

    Thank you for the very kind words my dear friend. Writing poems for others is such a rewarding kind of endeavor. That's what Merry~go~ Rhymes are all about. I am really excited about tomorrow. Our first actual venture together. Just so you know tho, doesn't mean I won't try a circus poem here and there in the future. I know Mike will enjoy reading all the kind wishes.
    Thanks again Sally!
