Terry Pratchett

I could murder a curry, Death mumbled under his voice A Terry Pratchett icon in his fantastic discworld universe Imagination…the inspiration of many This legend awe inspiring… Every book, every tale Breathing new life into each Even as his was failing A small token of homage For soo many hours spent Ensconced in his world All his characters my friends Feeling familial traits even in luggage, the many legged suitcase I explore tiffs world with her little blue men And my heart broke with all, when granny Weatherwax saw her end My favourite character to be sure, i cried and cried I only lived that book once as it crushed me inside So I re read the old tales where she’s living a new All the while feeling that her character was you I broke just as much, when I heard you were gone The end of an era, new tales now anon A tribute to my favourite author anew We all drop our hats.. Terry Pratchett it’s you

How did I let this one get by all this time Melody Wiggett. Also glad to now know the story's birth and curry's death through the eyes and imagination of one Terry Pratchett. A fine tribute. -Richard
