    Gettysburg

    Previous Page Next Page

      And with each victory, heart uplifted by unknown wing

      He'd raise his head proudly, and loudly he'd sing:

      “You know, it's really not that hard to be free...

      just float like a butterfly and sting like a bee!”

      But now, the final bell has rung.

      No need to hold your breath.

      Dreams, you know, they die slowly

      and heroes always seem a bit holy

      until they meet their match.

      What's left in the darkness of a lonely arena,

      stands simply the shadow of a solitary ballerina;

      a moment of glory from a passing generation,

      left without heroes, or dreamers, or veneration.

      To them she lifts a torch,

      lifts it high and lifts it bright,

      in memory of a man who knew how to fight.

      Gracefully she bows, as she gently sighs,

      quickly wiping the tear from her eye,

      and proudly she loudly cries:

      “You know, it's really not that hard to be free...

      just float like a butterfly and sting like a bee!”
