Poem Artwork

Gone way too soon,
Were all as well way too young,
Their music did make us for them swoon,
Their live music today goes unsung…

Was it right for God to take these His servants,
When they had yet to reach the pinnacle of their service,
So many words to put to music,
So much music to put to words…

Hopefully those of us still on this earth,
Will one day see these music legends again,
Not to mention all those who did to us bring mirth,
Till that time we can enter their earthly domain,
Through their music, comedy & drama,
The only way for me to stay sane...

It's music that makes me cling to some semblance of sanity.

Is this prompted by the passing of Acker Bilk? So many great talents now in the past. We were the lucky ones to have known of them.
