Happy Birthday Elvis











"Happy Birthday Elvis"



























I was going to write a poem for Elvis's
Birthday on January Eight,

Something just kept bugging me about
that date.

All of a sudden it just came to me,

I mean exactly how dense can I be?

That's the same day my beloved Mom
passed away,


Maybe I still try to suppress that
terrible day.


On January eight it will be eight years
since Mom passed in her sleep,


She wasn't sick and only fifty-nine
and the pain cut so deep.


How do I write a tribute for one so
loved and well known?


Without feeling the pain and the loss of
my own?

I'm still not sure how I never realized
that date was the same,


The birth of Elvis Presley and the loss of
my mom,

“Patricia was her name.”

So I guess this Birthday Tribute to Elvis is also a
memory of Mom as well,


The two together I'm sure would have a story
or two to tell.


"Gone but never Forgotten"


"May you both be safe in"
"God's loving hands"
