Five for the memorial to a great musician. I danced with him in LA. He rode into the club on that beautiful motorcycle. Purple Rain is a good song but I prefer When Doves Cry.
When doves cry
the fabric of the universe
rips..repeatedly
without yin
there is no yang.
Tax day has come and gone. Hope you found those papers. BTW ..in your poem...what does the name David have to do with anything? It certainly is a misnomer? Bye.

Hello dear Michael
You've really touched on the heart strings and to the core of the man himself. Far too young to die ... I guess when it's our time ... we don't do the choosing. There does seem to be so much grace and peace in the manner of his passing and conduct of his fans. May he RIP. That dear little boy and his guitar, I guess all parents encourage their children into steady jobs and the chores of the day then his dad may have known early. I don't know the history of Prince. He certainly was a huge talent, a great performer. Did he suffer from epilepsy? Well done dear lad. I've enjoyed the sensitivity of your words. Hugs - Lovi xoxox

Hi Lovi...-smile-
yea I guess he did as a child. He tells a story of how one day he woke up and told his mother...I wont be getting sick anymore. when she asked why...he said an angel had told him. I didn't listen to him a lot...though whenever I did he commanded my attention. It was absolutely clear special was near. I also respected how he stood up to Warner Brothers. Kept his honor instead of their millions. Wish we had a politician in my Country with that kind of integrity. -smile-...thank you Beautiful. love you Michael

Your well written poetic verse is one that is easy follow. I enjoy the well formed stanzas and the poem read very smoothly and did not seem forced.

Lovely tribute to the Artist Known as Prince. This would have been an excellent entry in the contest, but it does not bear that information, which is unfortunate as it could be a winning entry. No suggestions for improvement; the image is a perfect compliment.

I did the same thing...oh well, I'm finding the contest reviewers don't care for my style, so I have pledged to avoid them from here on out :)

This is a wonderful tribute to prince and his legacy. Thank you for that. You seem to have known his music well. I remember when I lived in Minneapolis and his career was just beginning. What an Artist.

Why thank you very much...-smile-...no kidding...? hm I never even knew about him until "purple rain" then couldn't help but take notice. I would forget about him and then...he'd show up....go to the music forum and you'll see what I mean. he plays "while my guitar gently weeps" with some mighty fine artist's...but you'll see. love Michael

A wonderful poetic tribute to Prince, Michael. He was an amazing musician who knew how to touch the souls of his listeners. So young, such a shame, but his music will,always keep him alive.
Smiles,
