Gregory Richard Barden Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Rip Chuck Berry

So many great artists
               passed thru death's door,

Divine, soulful voices -
               serenade us no more,

But in harmony thus,
               the angels will sing ...

For Rock and Roll Heaven
               now welcomes ... its King.

Andrea Dietrich March 20, 2017 at 6:33 PM Love your nice little tribute, Greg. Gregory Richard Barden March 22, 2017 at 1:15 AM Thank you - it was going to be longer, but it was coming too hard - like it was telling me it was fine as it was. I'm trying more intently to listen to that "still, small voice" ... ;-)
