The time has arrived upon us once more
that defies our strange obsession.
Another famous star who died young
in bizarre circumstances is being buried
Hopefully to rest in death not found in life
more than we know filled him with strife.
Michael so talented gentle and caring
that extra love he had to share.
Even though millions adored his music
concerns were expressed about his mind.
Many worries too referred to his health
now he’s gone the talk is of his wealth.
The only final thoughts I can now share
is that he can now find true peace.
For the fans his music will go on forever
some will always criticise the man.
He is making the journey we must take
for his memory we cannot fore sake.
In the end we must follow our designated path
the clock cannot be put in reverse.
Why could the tenderness of his whole family
not be there when he was alive.
Easy to show the love and goodness too late
genuine closeness just cannot wait.
I know little about the king of pop so much written and said over the years. I never followed his career closely. But did enjoy the music and with interest the stories. I speak only what I see and hear and have an open mind on his life. All I know for sure he has left so much great music that will live as long as man remains on this earth. And he did have a positive effect on so many. This too will live on around the world. But sadly a fortune will be made out of his material and people will earn vast profit’s from his name.
