Voice boomed and image beamed: SPB

September 28, 2020

Your voice boomed and image beamed
Captivating subtly, deeply n moving
To unknown depths and realms
Rarely visited in mundane life.
Larger than life- you were
Effortlessly connecting, with your
Presence, goodness and charm
An inexplicable something- many strive for but
Rarely glimpse; in you aplenty…

Your voice boomed and image beamed
In all languages, anywhere and everywhere
Touching hearts, moving souls
To unheard heights and depths.
Rising like a beacon
Outshine you didn’t
Gracefully including with your
Presence, goodness and charm
An inexplicable something- many strive for but
Rarely glimpse; in you aplenty…

Your voice boomed and image beamed
Snatched away all too soon it seems,
Music & art danced
With goodness and grace in you.
Son of the soil, our nation’s gift,
Your voice reverberates
In hearts & souls blended with your
Presence, goodness and charm
An inexplicable something- many strive for but
Rarely glimpse; in you aplenty…
