Neil Simon
You give and give and give some more
Then wait to see growth from the seeds you bore
Some fall to the wayside
Later to be revived

What's more? There's so much more
the list goes on.....
Look up Simon's achievements
Don't just take my word for it.
Neil Simon, you are with us
Forever in your art
The works you created
Will always be a part
Of a valuable collection
With every reflection and recollection
You will be highly esteemed
And thought of sweetly
For your artsy human side
Cherished too
For the comedic side of you
Whether thinking about
Or watching movies and plays
We will remember you
In your best of days
In reminiscing, Neil Simon,
You'll be thought of mostly
For you just being you!
Another time
Another place

Hi, Gio. This was the first I knew of his death. A man who will be sadly missed. Nice, heartfelt tribute, quickly assembled. John
Thanks John, although I'm not one that's inclined to be the bearer of sad news, I felt compelled to write, in some way, a remembrance for him. Fortunately, he was older and lived a full life and touched a lot of people's lives, including my own. Rip Neil Simon...
