A Sad Day

Yesterday was a sad day for Hollywood. Two icons now dead. Katie spent the night with her Nini and Papa, and I guess she heard a lot about the whole thing, since they love to watch the news. So she dreamt last night that SpongeBob died, too...a sad day, right?

Symbols
~by Laurie Kolp

She was the sex symbol of the 70s
Hair as big as a feathered peacock
Smile that spread like a wave.

He was the king of pop in the 80s
Music that thrilled millions of fans
Dancing with everything he gave.

Both dead on the same day
Farrah from cancer, Michael who knows?
Symbols that died before they hit the grave.

that's a nice tribute :). I loved Michael's work as an artist - its too bad he turned out the way he did in the end. Sad actually. Fame too early messes people up ~ their reality is distorted. that's why I want to be famous when I'm old - HA :).
