An Elegy For J.B. Poem by Christopher Tye

An Elegy For J.B.



An Elegy For J.B.

A star so bright you brought light to us all,
Words and verse so fine so few could compare,
Your time here so brief yet brilliant,
Our lines will be more mundane without you to inspire us.

Your reign was a great one,
We poets know poetry sometimes comes at a great cost,
We'll all miss the joy and tragedy of your poems,
After your abdication we look back,
With sadness of you leaving you,
But with memories of great joy.

Where ever the world takes you,
And whatever life holds for you,
We are so grateful that you shared your poems,
And remember most of all we wish you well,
For many of us you'll always be an inspiration.
