Michael Jackson! King Of Pop Poem by Sylvia Chidi

The artistically king of pop
The legendary cream of the crop
In silence your world falls
Through hearts and souls, large and small
With your final curtain call

Sadly there were many of us not there
In your solitary blackest moments of fear
Michael Jackson! With sobbing tears we cry
Michael Jackson! Why did you fly far away so high?

On life’s theatre stage you broke phenomenal grounds
As we take a look back to culture, songs and sounds
When black and white were maliciously separate
You brought to the world universal love instead of hate

Through your songs was born a faith
So strong it reunited people, countries and states
Michael Jackson! With sobbing tears we cry
Michael Jackson! Why did you die before saying goodbye?

The dancing genius - Father of the moonwalk
The world is curious – Small talk becomes large talk
And now your memory will stalk us
As you return back to dust so fast!
Goodbye and may you be in peace at last
