I’m sorry for your loss. When we have friends and acquaintances we don’t meet there’s the expectation that one day we will. This poem is a beautiful way to remember him by and to share a tribute for what seems a fine young man. His humour is with you and now it will be carried forward with those reading your words.

Ita.

Callimachi praebent ultima verba micam.

Fantastically good. The best poems have a simple harmony. They ring out and sit, contented.

So sorry for your loss. Mike sounds like a wonderful person.

Your poem really captures something many of us have experienced - both in Latin and English. Thank you.
