| A warrior went to rest today. I stand not knowing what to say. His work will likely long endure Because his cause and heart were pure. He spent his life in a battle few Would ever have the courage to. He took on power, greed and hate With love and justice - he was great. He stood to face the evil foe Who live where ivory towers grow. He never backed from fear or wear For his cause, he was just - there. He helped the injured and the poor So that these people could endure. He never saw himself above But rather fought for them with love. He fought with every strength he had He fought even when things went bad. You always knew just where he stood - And always knew his heart was good. As the end of his own war drew near He made sure that all would hear Though pain remained, he had to gaff Just to make his loved ones laugh. For him it was not about his life Or recognition for his strife. But rather it was all about Those who live their lives without. We feel a loss today, I know In fact I cannot rightly show The way that I feel for this man But I have tried the best I can. My friend and I - we met so late - But such is oft the hand of fate. As I write, I realize just what to say: A WARRIOR WENT TO REST TODAY Grover, you are loved by many and respected by many more. Rest in peace, my friend and warrior. . |
