"To a very special man"

Font Size

Your roses are red
Mine are green
These are for Larry
My serotonin.
•

Disguised as human
Played multi-roles
Truly an angel
Touched many souls.
•

The world
It’s your stage
You loved to perform
No matter the age.
•

You needed your balance
You liked ballet
Performing in plays
You could slay.
•

Your naughty streak
Can’t get past me
Your unconditional love
Even the blind can see.
•

Stories to write
Moments in time
About oceans to dive
Or mountains to climb.
•

Your challenge to me
Get the Omnium badge
Not just Prolific Writer
I can’t cadge.
•

If you can’t have it back
You hoped I will
It won’t be easy
The battle is uphill.
•

“Listen to Ennio’s
When you can’t write
You’ll thank me
I know, I’m right.”
•

It made you sad
Primus Omnium
Losing that badge
Until your senium.
•

You didn’t want to lose
Get your mojo back
Writing was your thing
Exceptional knack.
•

In my darkest days
You brought the light
Even when I’ve given up
You put up a fight.
•

“To my grave
I’ll take your pains”
You told me
But for what gains?
•

“Squeeze them
Don’t fight your demons
Like lemonade
Made from lemons.”

•

You’d josh, “You can cry
but not too long
You’ll look ugly
That’s so wrong.”
•

Your wisdom at times
It’s funny and dark
Victor will agree
I can hear him bark.
•

With life’s challenges
You’d say, “Good to hear,
We will survive
Sweet darling, never fear.”
•

I didn’t expect
Your sudden demise
You said you’ll fight
I can only surmise.
•

May your soul
Loving Lorenzo
Rest in eternal peace
It’s your time to go.

•

Green_Man is gone
His memories remain
Celebrate his life
Cheers with champagne!
