Farewell To a King
POEM " FAREWELL TO A KING " by martin gedge
( RIP NEIL PEART)
Sticks and stones and roll the bones
to the mystic rhythm of your soul
for the banging of the drum in the hearts of everyone
is the beating of the Peart in rock n' roll
and a golden band of rush who would hold a royal flush
in every venue that was strewn across the lands
with inspire to ignite all the fire and limelight
was in power and the quickness of his hands
and the wise and very three with Lifeson, Geddy Lee
made the country of Canada loud and proud
and wherever you would go it's the spirit radio
that showed deep in their music and their crowd
and the journey down the road big Money and the load
the same they came to Fly by every night
their will was free to choose to come up win or lose
and leave a millions candles burning bright
but even closer to the heart in the shadows of the dark
a new world man and victor to us all
so sad to see him go on the pass that we all know
time stands stiill watching heroes as they fall
and so quiet and contain a legend shall remained
onto the stairs that holds a halo ring
like a soldier in the song in the heavens and beyond
his kits a perfect fit to sit a king...
