When the Chalk Dust Fades
A creative heart stopped beating,
Its amazing potential has ceased.
The sidewalk bears its final goodbye,
Before it entered into peace.
·
Although your voice was silenced,
You still speak to us through your art.
The concrete still echoes the memories,
That dwell within our hearts.
·
Loneliness speaks in volumes,
In the chalk art you portray.
And may the memories carry on,
When the chalk dust fades away.
