You were a superstar in high school
getting great grades
making the honor role every year
participating in extracurricular activities
voted class president
you were building a fabulous future
and you were blessed with good lucks
now all that you were
all of your promise
the future you built
is gone
as you lay in your grave
dead at age 77
at least you make the best
of you life
from high school to
a stellar career
helping people for a living
but, oh how it saddens me
that all that you were
is gone from this world –
forever
Bob Boyd
