Goodbye Whitney

such a formal occassion this is having come in spiritual attendence to the departing of a friend it's sad but it is a fact well known living that type of life style next thing you know your gone you were truely a chapion at the head of your game very few in comparison could compete with your name you were a Diva with a capital D Divine in measure you brought to the world endless pleasure and suddenly, unexpectingly, surprisingly they say you've gone your body is here, but no one alive can bring you back not even for one more show i wonder how Aretha must feel having lived longer than you

Sad Sunday in the news. Another shocker for the blues. We'll hear her voice for ever more. She died too young, whatever for?
