Perfect Pencraft * 4 Mick *

If words are colors and lines are shapes, there's something to be seen...
Things that never were before, designs that seem to gleem...
You've added unknown mixtures to this corner of a team...
And washed our souls, complete control, your colors make us clean...

One can only wonder if it's the canvas that you use...
Painting pictures of your life, we certainly peruse...
Some have said it very well, your colors are well used...
But back to back, the black you stack, is the best and that's a fact....

About this poem:

Because of the fact that your farewell poem is still being commented on, I have decided to re-write this from memory. I transferred it into Kingsoft recently to edit it, but my phone crashed and I lost everything. I think it is close to the original however....
We love you brother Mick......

If I may say so Christian, you are no slouch yourself when it comes to pencraft: I am more than happy to endorse this deserved tribute to Mick, who is clearly one of nature's good guys - and a fine poet.

Super rhythm in this short vignette.

Best wishes

Hi Christian, I have to follow suit with everyone else. Excellent words from a wordsmith to a true gentleman. You paint your canvas with skill as well Christian.
