Today the music world is full of sad quivers

As the news of a legends passing sends emotional shivers

Bill Withers is a singer

Withering away from us too soon

A man of peaceful, uplifting, and encouraging tunes

Will now be singing his melodies in God’s Heavenly room

Including myself, he leaves behind so many of his fans

But at least he now can go back to rest in his Grandma’s Hands

He was 81 years of age

Though his heart stopped beating, his legacy will always grace the stage

A musician of encouragement that other artists shall embrace

We will always remember to have a Lovely Day

Even when something without warning hurts our eyes in the sunshine’s dawn

We will carry on, even when we are not strong, because we always have Somebody to Lean On

We’ll continue to rejoice in words turned into magnificent songs

Even though there Aint No Sunshine When She’s Gone

There will always be Just the Two of us Building castles that reach High up above

We will always continue to do our duty

And let it Use Me

Until You Use Me Up

RIP Bill Withers
