Do You Remember The Time

Living Intelligently From Experience

A Path in the Lives and Experiences of People

as they affect many, taken from

lives past, lives now and lives that will be

 

This poem was an entry under LIFE along with some 34 others in the FCLE (Frank Collymore Literary Endowment contest. FCLEL001


 

Do You Remember The Time

 

Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough

Our lives are difficult but you are tough

 

You Are Not Alone so look around you

Open your eyes and see what others are going through

Uncover the blinders and see that Man In The Mirror

 

Revealed as a potential source, a solution, a helper

Earth Song and Heal the World are but just a few

Michael sung of love, helping the impoverish and the sick too

Ease On Down The Road he said, the road to progress

Make the world a better place for all people’s success

Beat It even if it means Working Day And Night

Equality should be everyone’s right, whether  Black or White

Remember The Time when it was our Human Nature to Smile

 

Though we felt like crying, if just for a while?

He wanted us to know that We Are The World

Every woman and man, every boy and girl

 

Together we can change the Bad and make it into good

Invest in our people and strengthen each neighborhood

Michael was a Thriller through song, dance, video and opportunity

Even taught us the importance of helping others and the blessings of charity
