Bill, you have described so well of the the people that Mastery used in his great novels. Especially cuckoo - nut
floozy - easy woman
piker - crook
sacks - liars

It?s the same here, I?m sure. Your definition sounds better than mine.

You captured the world in Bob's books. He mastered the genre of mystery, with the character of Cleve Hawkins, in a very articulate way. The last book 'The Deceivers' is pending four chapters. Would, that we knew who he had in mind as the villain. This is a very apt tribute, Bill.

Yep, that pretty well describes the characters Bob chose to write about. I enjoyed this poem. I found it fun to read and very descriptive picture of the world of Bob and Clever Hawkins.

This is such a charming and entertaining tribute to our dear departed Bob, I bet he laughed aloud reading it over your shoulder as you wrote all those inventive and amusing rhymes. Witty, whimsical and delightful to read aloud! All fans of his story and the 'land of Cleve' will enjoy this. Brings a lighthearted approach to our grief process. Love it! A great contribution to the book. I was going to quote my favorite lines, but ALL of them are! All those internal rhymes! Bravo!

Warmly, rd

Thank you, rd, for the generous and encouraging review. Bob is a guy I wanted to meet; only a couple hours away, then.

Now, much farther away! But you may meet him yet, up there...

Unfortunately, I did not know Bob. I have read some beautiful and heartfelt tributes to the man and his writing.
Here you took a creative and marvelous twist. You took his characters gave them life, and had them finally join Bob forever.
Well done. Bill

Hello Bill, good morning. You have really lent a masculine point of view in the chapters created for Bob. Good work on bringing to the fore all of the different shades and dimensions of the characters he wrote about!!

A very nice tribute to a person I don't know. I feel that somehow I have an idea of this man and his writing. A very nice tribute.

Thanks for sharing.
