I loved Carly Simon and I thought this was a wonderful performance.
The poem doesn’t relate to the song.
You’re a legend in your own time
And isn’t it such a crime
You were misunderstood
And life cheated you, not good
Now you’ve gone away
Your worth they now convey
With words of praise and love
Appreciated, proud of
Your accomplishments praised
Songs about your life engraved
On other’s lips you are touted
Your worth is now undoubted
The meaning you gave your life
Finally understood, cuts like a knife
You are missed honoured and praised
None of which you, would have phased
You were you, strong determined and bold
On truth, love, and caring you had a hold
Hindsight is always twenty twenty
But my life is certainly empty
Without the friendship we once had
The closeness we shared makes me glad
That song was so good, we still quote the lyrics when we talk about people who see themselves as legends. Great choice!
Oh thank you, Marilyn, I have to agree. I loved it and her. I so appreciate the lengths you’ve gone to in order to stay connected. For whatever reason, I have to add you back every day, but I get to you. I have you on FVD Speed Dial so I don’t miss you now hehe
Nice point of view. Super LIKE for you 🙂
Oh thank you very much, I’m touched it spoke to you.
My pleasure 🙂
It’s still nice to hear, means worlds
