Hold Tight everyone knows how short life is how fast a moment can be and how precious every second we have with each other truly is I look at you having left your family your friends your country for us I think of the brass ring we reached out for enjoying the ride and not fully understanding the gold our hands closed around Reading through the papers listening to the radio life's blood spilled needlessly wantonly hopelessly streaming down the drain gone in a flash Someone so vibrant so filled with life his presence making the air crackle much like the role played on distant shores Immortal And yet in one moment one blink of an eye gone the vacuum created suddenly removing the icon presenting the man the father the husband the son showing us this larger than life person was larger than the role played Unforgettable And with life beating with one less soul do I reach out holding on to you who gave up so much for me Reminded that life is too short Reaching out with both fists and holding on tightly before blinking out 2 (c)Trish Shields 021602 |
