Sea To Cross

entry picture

 

A poet, who wrote from the heart.

In my life, he’s played a huge part.

Oozing passion, from every pore.

Gave his all, then gave some more.


Songs he wrote, stirred the soul.

Hope and pride, his vision and goal.

He wrote of love, mourned at loss.

Helped us over many a sea to cross.


He weaved images of distant hills.

His fateful lyrics, gives me the chills.

He took us to the stars and moon.

Then sadly, he was gone all too soon.


The perfect world, in vain he chased.

Deep inside, dark demons he faced.

Forever remembered will be his name.

I love you Stuart, I say without shame.
