"Late To The Party"

He took the world by storm.
In the news throughout the years.
While I was living my life,
His voice I didn't always hear.


Caught by surprise one too many times,
While so many were at their peak.
I didn't pay enough attention
To the ones who were most unique.

Why am I always late to the party?
Why can't I arrive on time?
Seems the reasons are always a question mark
And I just miss the signs.

Am I doomed to mourn forever
The loss of those so dear?
Can I make amends somehow?
Please make the picture clear.

Too many shocks to the system
Can cause the worst regret.
Will I ever be able to get over,
And remember what I can't forget?

Maybe someday I'll know the answer.
I'll now take my troubadours to heart.
Let them spread their magic far and wide
Before it's their turn to part.

And this time I won't be late for the party.
I'm determined to arrive on time.
Please let me have more clarity now.
I pray I'll never again be so blind.



Dedicated especially to Michael Jackson and Maurice Gibb,
true artists in their crafts and to so many others too numerous

to list here. May a new generation discover what wonderful

contributions you've made to the world of music and beyond!

Godspeed to you all! Love, Karen ♥
