A Purple Prayer

A Purple Prayer

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)
"

Dedicated to one of the greatest artist of all time.

"

 

We are gathered here today

To celebrate the life

Of this man we call PRINCE…

Oh what an artist was he,

Some may  have thought he was delirious

But when it comes to music

We know he was a genius.

If you ask his friends

They will say his greatest talent

Was being a philanthropist.

Now gone much too soon,

Fans and family mourn alike,

Now we understand

What it sounds like

When doves cry.

There is no doubt his humanity and music

Will forever touch us all

Like PURPLE RAIN from Heaven.

I like the way you have done this. Prince's loss is probably the only time I actually mourned the death of a celebrity.

Glad you liked it :)
"Some may have thought", you left out the word " have". This is a sweet poetic tribute and I like how you included Purple Rain in it.

It's better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool
