Louis Armstrong

"Pops" is gone Master of the trumpet He dazzled with his artistry We listened and watched The man could rip out a tune..... But if the truth be told He is gone He's with Bix, Miles and the others "Gone from the world"

not all gone some people still appreciate by memory. Those die if forgotten and those who live forever live in other minds and thoughts, nice poem on one of the great musicians.
