Artful Alvin,
Friend, mentor, shrewd inventor, storytelling sage and welter. Thanks a ton for fun while Sun-indentured with your words. You've shown me whey and saved me days of toil, dearth, and gloom.
I'll never forget when first I found your letters up on page. Your Smile, scarf and honest look entrained my wordly gaze, sustained creative rage, and birthed true Golden days.
I wish you well as carry-on fits snugly in test cage, that you might find bright merry shells to fill with thoughts unclaimed, as if a wandered mage.
Be swell, ever smirk, and keep your bones off crutch.
William
