I wet a tear for a passing Connecting Singles Poet who pleasured the many with his wit & comments.
A regular decent guy that thought in & out of the box. He posted an estimate of 722 Poems on C/S.
~ His comments regarding his “Exotic Tea Brew” & his hanging, swaying bamboo cages with wild women on Café’s island ~ was entertaining to say the least.
It was a serial adventure awaiting the next chapter & we awaited on the tips of our toes.
His ongoing chatter regarding comments about his poems were enjoyed by most ~ and answered by many ~
Lucky are the few to be remembered so well as the final curtain falls.
Café’ may your next act and adventure in the world beyond, be worthy of a Poet such as you ~
Your friends on Connecting Singles and I will miss you too!
Thank you JimEee for this beautiful appreciation of our Dear Cafe.We will all miss him here at CS.May his soul be in the arms of the Lord and in peace. SM

Thank you JimEee for this lovely tribute to our dear Cafe...I still cant believe it he will be dearly missed,I used to read all his poems,all his comments,he kept the corner going such a lovely soul.Tears fell fast and full.Its terrible to think that one from our midst has left.May he rest in peace in the arms of God. There comes a time for everyone when we must say goodbye But memories of the ones we love Will live on and never die Our hearts will bleed with sorrow Our silent tears will flow For to have lost a sweet poet like you Dear Cafe(Jim) Only we will ever know.

Thank you for this beautiful write for ~ Our Cafe' ~
I love the poets' tributes for him, including all that you've written here.
What touches me the most is: "A regular decent guy that thought in & out of the box."
Just perfect... and love that you included "...thought in & out of the box", as the 'out of the box' thinking that was one of the facets of Jim, of course, made much of his poetry & comments so fun, as someone mentioned, better than going to see a stand-up comic. But that thinking also brought about so much inspiration... even in the poem "Depression". It was just fabulous.
Thanks again, JimEee, for using your own wonderful talents to write this cherished tribute to dear Cafe. (Wow, it's been quite a few days since I teared up while writing a comment on a poet's tribute or even some of Cafe's poems I've recently written on.) Sincerely, Cat
(Cafe, Still... missing you so much. I know you're thoroughly enjoying ALL there is... maybe you've met Paul, the apostle, you wrote so wonderfully about, many others you read of for so many years, and loved ones who went before you. And I know you look forward to seeing us again, along with family and friends outside of CS that you have. I'm sure you don't need reminding... but you still have time for everything your heart could ever desire, just as I wrote that you'd someday have ALL ETERNITY... Love you, always, Cat & Chris)

There comes a time for everyone
