Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie
- Fr. Tom Fish
- I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

ML Means Love
I’ve added my comments to all of the other ones scattered around the CB in tribute to ML and all she does for us. That wasn’t enough for me, I wanted to do more, so I sharpened my quill (don’t ask where the rest of the bird is) and put together a tribute of my very own.
Here's a little rhythm and rhyme for the occasion:
(cue the CB orchestra)
From Father Tom to ML
I think I'll curl right up and find myself a letter,
I think I’ll pick an M to describe the Many ways
That ML of the CB makes things better;
We add an L which says she’s Loved these many days
With daily words on the CB
Providing news for you and me
We'll say a big thank you and never forget her!
ML, will you dance with me??
Hugs,
Tom

Great tribute!
Tom, are you flirting with ML or KC? :)
Very nice tribute to ML. Very original too.
That was totally T Terrific, just like ML!!!
Beautiful poetry. How very talented. xoxo
OMC !!!! Father Tom, This is so romantic post !!!
I'm sure ML will say " Yes "
xoxo
Wow, Tom, ML is gonna LOVE this post. We just know it!
Yay for ML and KC - they are such super friends.
Thanks coming back to my party. With 84 comments and just over 80 visitors we manage to raise $42 for The Cat Protection Society. Next year we hope to raise more, expecially if my SS manage to get a permanent FT job.
I love the Labor of Love theme for this weekend. I saw someone had written.."It's a shame when we say, 'I have to go to work.'" It's the have to part. Not everyone loves what they do and when they do, they shine, like ML and KC..
And..I always imagine music with any celebration, so I got together the CB orchestra for our little tribute. I'm glad you like it.
Happy Labor Day, everyone!
Tom
