Meeting Andy Gibb: Today Is His Birthday

Some moments in life we just
cannot recall,
Like rapid moving waters one sees 
in a waterfall.
But meeting Andy, I will
cherish and remember.
His eyes, his smile, far more
than warm and tender.

I can't think of another soul,
so glowing, bright and beautiful.
Oh, how I want so to make a
picture,
Of this singer gone much too
soon!
His demeanor, so gloriously
blissful.

I was blessed enough to touch 
his hand, and that
smile indeed, so loving.
I had no intention of giving
him a gift.
But I felt in that time-moment,
I was en route to heaven on 
a starry chariot!

With no reason or rhyme,
my visor with sparkling,
Multi colored lights~ I 
suddenly gave to Andy!
He was as pleased as punch.
Just before getting into his limo 
for lunch,
He turned, smiled and spoke:
"Thank you Mate!.
On the Southern California beaches,
this sure will come in handy".

Today is Andy Gibb's birthday,
Bet you anything he's singing
away with a sparkling visor, on God's 
holy moon.
By angels, serving him a large, 
sumptuous buffet.
With his brothers, very close beside him.
Humming a tune.



In memory of Andy Gibb
With love from~
Panagiota

Hi Pangie, the Bee Gee's were a fabulous group, I met John Lennon twice in London in the sixties, such a lovely man, and a great song writer, sadly missed.

How fortunate you met John Lennon! I love the Beatles to this day. I loved their movie, yellow Submarine, when he died, we had rallies near the Golden Gate Bridge at night, it was lovely,people played his music, brought flowers and lit candles.. Pangie xx

Such a beautiful tribute to Andy, Panagiota. I have never met him but I go way back with his music. The Bee Gees are a great band and they probably wouldn't be the same without Andy. Awesome that you actually met him in your life. Just wonderful...Charlie
