Chris Matt Poet Rhyme

Brandon Lee

“Take your shot Fun boy, you got me dead bang.”
that was the last line he ever sang. 
He came onto the scene and into our hearts. 
Showing us his skills in martial arts. 

He showed us what it was to be free. 
He told us to live life to the fullest and be happy. 
An amazing actor, he knew how to flow. 
He gave one of the greatest performances in The Crow. 

“Nothing, nothing in this life is trivial” he said, 
not knowing his life was on a short thread. 
He was only 27, 
when he was called to heaven. 

In May of 1993, 
we lost a great one, named Brandon Lee.

Carol Sunshine Brown March 14, 2011 at 6:09 AM After a very super weekend I am back at the soup reading. I enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Chris. There are so many diverse writers here and I am so happy I am able to read most of them. Have a wonderful week and may you find what you are looking for in life and in your writing. Love, Carol

Carolyn Devonshire March 13, 2011 at 8:34 AM It's so sad that both Bruce and his son Brandon died young. Both of them not only had talent, but good values as well. This is a fine example of what you're seeking in your contest, Matt. I sent you a Soup mail asking if we could submit a poem written earlier but was not entered in a contest. Thanks for the inspiration. I can write a new one on someone else if you prefer new poems. Love, Carolyn
