"Touching The Moon"

I see sadness in your face, maybe it's that I know

what happened, and so I read it that way.

You'd really be something, had you lived on..

if you were still here today.

But if the soul lives forever your beauty and warmth are always here to stay.


You're the angel, the muse, so many are changed by your spirit and charm.

Inside and out the most beautiful angel this earth has ever born.

And so you live on and on......

A symbol of times full of love, yet with war at the edge of the dawn.

All you wanted was to give life to your child and in this world carry on.

A beacon of light,a glowing presence, the hollywood game was your bout.

Too much for some who wouldn't play along, absorbed in their own self doubt.

Now you're breaking away from the shadow that's eclipsed your name,and always stood in the way.

Jealousy loomed from unfortunate darkness and attempted to ruin the day

We were touching the moon, living our dreams, and now it seems so far away.

If you'd come back tommorow would you still be as warm in a world filled with so much decay?

May your goodness remain to counter the bad and inspire the children today.

And now we celebrate your existence, and cherish your spirit and one of the things that we pray ....

maybe someday they'll learn to be beautiful also...... you'll help them in lighting the way.

The goodness remains, an angelic symbol of someone gone too soon.

The age of aquarius, became the end of an era,

While you Sharon are still touching the moon.
