Archangel Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 This is my latest poem as a tribute to the late Captain Sir Thomas Moore. The image was turned into a cartoon using the GMIC extension in Affinity Photo. The poem was written in LibreOffice and imported into Affinity Publisher. Good Knight, Captain Tom AffinityJules, dannyg9, Besli and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyg9 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Lovely tribute. Love to see a version where the text doesn't cover his face. He was knighted, yes? Besli 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, He was. Hence, the homonym based word play between "Good knight!" as a salutation and "Goodnight" wishing him a peaceful slumber as another way of saying "rest in peace". dannyg9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
