On this blue sky Easter morning
I'm thinking of you
Nothing to do
With the way you left
But the way you lived
Thank you for living
To teach me things
I ought to learn
To cope when the tables
Expectedly turn.
Two years on
I think of how
People consider me
"better" now
I'll never forget
As long as I live
But after this time
I think....
I forgive.

A FINE TRIBUTE INDEED - from a Wilbury so young!
The title and the first line of this heartfelt and soulful poem that was obviously written for someone that you cared about and loved a great deal hooked me like a pieces fish right from the get go. Simply written - in the same way that the songs of our heart and soul are sung to us - and in the same and spiritual way our favorite BEATLE sang about and lived his live - I found this peaceful at times - with a touch of sorrow - and filled with hope and forgiveness at the end. I said it once before - and I'll say it once again - This was a wonderful and beautiful tribute to your friend.
Peace & Love!
Earl.
