I Choose To Youtube

I choose to YouTube. When famous people die, You get to look back fondly at their lives. You get to see what they accomplished; You get to read what people write. You get images never seen before; You open whole new doors. You learn the truth and the lies; All truth is revealed in due course. When famous people die, You find out who really deserves to be in ‘Who’s who.’ You remember their contribution to the world And you wonder; what could I do? How could I do something to earn that fame, that respect? You wonder if your life, when you are taken, Will have had any kind of effect. When famous people die, You become nostalgic for a youth long since gone. When a famous person dies, You remember them in poetry or in songs; Or you remember their songs, Or the movies they made during their life. When a famous person dies, Some of them become more famous, Than they ever did when they were alive. Remember fame brings you immortality; So find yourself a way. Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson; Kurt, Bowie and Prince. I really liked them all when they were alive… I have loved their music since. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
