Estelle Getty

(Dedicated to Estelle Getty who died July 22, 2008.)

When we watched her, she brought about laughter.
Now she's dead and she's in the hereafter.
She died at the age of eighty-four.
It's sad that she's not around anymore.
When she was young, she must have been very pretty.
Now the world is sad as we say goodbye to Estelle Getty.

Why Can'T I?

with sad choices,Oh Sad Voices, crying in the night
weeping pain, they cry in vain, they weep in sorrow, why can't I?
Piercing shrieks, they find their peak, within my heart
within my soul, they consume my insides, Consume me whole
Weeping Children, dying night, lives are ending before they start.
I hear their voices, I hear their pain, I hear them reaching for life again, they weep forever, they weep their 
plight, weeping in sorrow, Why Can't I?
