Tears of I'm missing you fall
splintering as they hit the floor
into a prism of wonderful memories
moments to treasure from here to eternity
When it comes to you
scarlet wine pushes through
the deepest part of my being LoveBeat Plus One
now the change in your life has just begun
Know you are not alone
as your sinful passion for writing flows
ever stronger through your blood
remember you will always be loved
by your friends here on AP
I have enjoyed the privilege of your company
Your kind words, friendship, love and support
how your stories often left me in awe
twilight whispers
the beautiful dark
the way you captured the orchestral symphony
of nature so close to my heart
yes, a fallen tear stings my cheek as I write this
as I walk within the garden of sadness know you will be missed
as you take the uncharted path to your destiny
never underestimate the impact your friendship has had on me
and others here on AP...for we are legion
for this reason
I will continue to take a walk with Wayne
for within the shadows my best friend and Darkness Reigns!

IT IS PLAIN TO SEE THAT YOU ARE SAD TO SEE THIS WRITER GO, SUGAR!
You have painted a very fine tribute to him, indeed - and by using the titles of some of your favorite pieces by him you have made this piece even more powerful, personal, heartfelt, soulful, and emotional, too! BRAVO, Michelle - you have done your job well here, indeed - and said what you needed to say to say FARE-THEE-WELL to your friend who you will always be with and who will always be with you, to say the least!
GOOD LUCK in the contest with this which is GOLDEN to me and I am sure to Wayne, also!
Love & Peace!
Earl.

He will be sorely missed. His stories have left us on the edge of our seats. Hopefully, one or even a few of them will come to a bookstore or theatre near you. Just remember that he will always be with you in spirit, & we will always be with you if you're down. Stay strong, sis.
