Poetry Pond
This is my paper, my mind is the pen

THE GOAL:

ONE POEM PER WEEK

.

Monday, August 16, 2004

This is a new poem I've written that is inspired by/written to the late musician Jeff Buckley. His debut album is being re-released next week, so he's on my mind lately.

A Hallelujah For Jeff

I say a hallelujah for the beauty in your voice
I say a hallelujah for the conviction of your choice
I say a hallelujah for your guitar and its strings
I say a hallelujah for the joy your music brings

So if you're listening
(and I know you are),
Know that we still care
We remember you in our hearts and minds
We do all we can to share

To share what gifts you gave to us
To share your angelic song
To share the music you left behind
Not sharing would be wrong

I say a hallelujah for your Hallelujah ten years past
I say a hallelujah because your music will forever last
I say a hallelujah for the fans who still have love
I say a hallelujah for you watching us from above
