This is a lovely tribute to the memory and character of Mastery. I'm sure he will be missed on this site by those who knew him. I feel I have known him a bit through your moving words. Blessings. Carol

On Forever's Seas, is a beautifully crafted and presented piece of work that is such a kind and loving tribute to your friend. I feel it often helps at times like this to be able to write and pour out your feelings and emotions.

    You're right, Beejay. Writing helps assuage the sadness, but the missing goes on and on. Thank you so much for this kind review. MM

What a beautiful tribute to someone who has left his hands and hearts on so many. He faced many trials throughout his life yet still kept fighting to stand strong, move forward, and find life's blessings in this world. It's an awesome poem.

Smiles, Carol

Beautiful tribute to Master, and written in your exquisite metre and rhyme.

Bob was an inspiration, mentor and friend to many, and his unique place within the FanStory family will always be remembered.

Very nicely done, MM.

A wonderful tribute to the memory of a wonderful friend. So true that their memory lives forever in Forever's sea, the heavens echo with their voice. Well done.

Magnificent tribute! A stellar addition to the Book of Bob--I've read at least a dozen so far--clearly he was well respected and loved on site--your poem says it all in flawless form.

"...We know the heavens echo with your voice..."

There is no finer tribute written, I think -- yours is a wonderful poem that I am sure is of great comfort to anyone who knew and loved this man. I hope they get to read it because it 'echoes' with his character.

Indeed, this poem is the all time best. Thank you for the moving and well-deserved tribute to a great man. Your skills and your heart deserve more than All Time Best status. Rest assured that I read every thing you post even if I don't have time and especially energy to review it. Jeff

This is such a bittersweet feeling reading these touching words for your friend. It must be hard dealing with a loss of your loved ones, but that's where art comes in and makes everything feel better. I am sure he knew just how much he meant to you - you say it so beautifully there's no way he didn't notice your love and appreciation before. You rhyme really well and your presentation is beautiful. A truly excellent work!

    Thank you so much for reviewing this poem. It is part of a book written by the many FanStory members who knew Mastery (Bob) and were sorry to hear of his passing. The book will be given to his family. Congratulations on winning first place in the Free Verse contest, and may I welcome you to the FanStory family. You will love it here, I promise. You've made a grand beginning already. :")
