[hometext] => This is a song by Elton John. I figured I'd put it in here, because I really like this song. In memory of Princess Diana.
[bodytext] => Goodbye England's Rose,
May you ever grow in our hearts, You were the grace that placed itself, Where lives were torn apart. You called out to our country, And you whispered to those in pain, Now you belong to Heaven, And the stars spell out your name. Chorus And it seems to me, like you lived your life, Like a candle in the wind, Never fading with the sunset, When the rain set in, And your footsteps will always fall here, Along England's greenest hills, Your candle's burned out long before, Your legend ever will. Loveliness we've lost, These empty days without your smile, This torch we'll always carry, For our nation's golden child, And even though we try, The truth brings us to tears, All our words cannot express, The joy you brought us through the years. Chorus And it seems to me, like you lived your life, Like a candle in the wind, Never fading with the sunset, When the rain set in, And your footsteps will always fall here, Along England's greenest hills, Your candle's burned out long before, Your legend ever will. Goodbye England's Rose, May you ever grow in our hearts, You were the grace that placed itself, Where lives were torn apart. Goodbye England's Rose, From a country lost without your soul, Who'll miss the wings of your compassion, More than you'll ever know. Chorus And it seems to me, like you lived your life, Like a candle in the wind, Never fading with the sunset, When the rain set in, And your footsteps will always fall here, Along England's greenest hills, Your candle's burned out long before, Your legend ever will. Everytime I hear this song, it makes me cry.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
