To Michael
Do you remember…
Hearing you name
Throughout the stadium..?
Tearing through the obstacles..?
Throwing that orange ball,
Down through the tall round basket..?
Do you remember..?
Seeing your face,
Hearing your name
Everywhere you went..?
And when you took off
Above all others,
Defying gravity..?
Television commercials,
Wheaties boxes,
Fan T-shirts,
All for you.
You were everywhere.
On TV,
At water coolers,
At dinner tables…?
You still teach all athletes,
To push passed their goals.
You deeply touched us.
Through words,
In your actions,
In our memories of you.
Focus hard,
Think
Of everything next to come.
Finish Strong,
Make others always remember,
Your name...
