a day of sorrow
This is a day of sorrow.
Jane Goodall has passed away
I fell in love with her in 1970
When I saw her beautiful face
In an article dedicated to apes
I wrote her letters declaring
my undying love, but never did
she answer me
I walked the streets near home
No, I didn't go to the jungle as
I have a fear of gorillas when
They beat their chest
I have loved an impossible dream
