Dear Carlos - 1. A Letter to a Friend
Dear Carlos,
So, what would I say to you that I didn’t if I had the chance?
Thank you, comes to mind. But you’d likely just have told me to behave. That thanks weren’t necessary. I hope that inside, secretly, it would have made you happy.
You were one of the first people to say ‘hi’ to me when I arrived on GA. You offered support and encouraged me to join in and write.
You asked me to read your CJ stories. I did read them, and I enjoyed them. You were happy to discuss my thoughts about the stories and characters. You were never afraid of criticism, offering it or receiving it.
Your support of me and many others new to writing was huge and appreciated.
You never loved poetry, though you liked one or two of mine, so I decided not to try to write one for you.
You were a champion of authors here, and I won’t forget what you did for them and me.
When I saw you hadn’t logged on for several days in June, I knew in my heart what had happened. I prayed I was wrong.
You leave a large, unfillable space in my heart and the hearts of many others. You are missed and remembered.
I will never forget you, C. Thank you for your support, enthusiasm, and the stories and characters you brought to life. In them, we will always find you.
Wherever you are, I hope you are at peace. More likely, you are fighting for a cause!
I hope your favourite bike is with you and its tank will always be full as you ride on.
Love and miss you, buddy,
tim aka mikiesboy
