In Honor of George Michael

Voice like velvet Positivity defined Optimistic nature Enchanting, sweet and kind An image that's seductive Rebellion at its core An influence that's constructive Charisma that opens doors A persona that's gargantuan A force to be reckoned with A soul who's enigmatic In this plane did exist You brought us depth and music And joy and light and hope And now we are bemusing The loss that was invoked Thank God you filled our presence With your triumphant songs We danced and cheered while clapping And also sang along Oh, thank you George for everything We'll miss you for all time We hope you rest in divinity Where blessings you will find

Thank you so much! I saw him as well. When I was a teenager, I got up at 3 a.m. to get tickets to his concert. My friend and I were lucky enough to get 7th row seats!! These are the things that you do as a teenager. This death hit me particularly hard because I saw him so upclose! Yes, the year has been brutal. Thanks so much for the support!
