Well done Rcpoems. I just watched your video. Very moving and as Dee mentioned you picked up on Glen's musical highlights very nicely. Welcome to the forums and I hope you will share more of your thoughts with us in the near future.
Best wishes,
Mike

Welcome to Glen Campbell Forums, Rcpoems.
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful poem and how Glen Campbell (and "Galveston") inspired you to write it.
It is very moving to listen to; I appreciate how you included high points about Glen's career.
The last line in your poem really sums up "Galveston" as well as Glen's illness for me: "Why me? for what? why?"

I have been a lifelong fan of Glen's. His last video touched me as did his illness. I wrote about it and here pair that poem with an older one inspired by the Vietnam War and the song GALVESTON , which I have probably heard FAR too many times. Please have a look at this video tribute . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bL_EV9tXnM" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
