Wish I knew how to leave the song for you to hear but just accept the fact that I love that song...e


Poem Artwork


 


Brings tears to my eye,


Shivers run the length of my spine,


A smile does cross my lips,


A sad smile all the same…


 


For a time I miss,


When friends became my sis,


Rampant was dancing & smoke,


Worked then as a bouncer,


Till of life’s reality I awoke…


 


What a feeling,


She sang it with gusto,


Just listening now brings on some healing,


But those times I do certainly miss,


I still remember everyone I knew,


So many now dead, left so few…

Was it Our Song, My Brother - you know, the one we used to love, in those madcap bouncer days of yours?!!
Now you've brought tears to my eyes, too.
