Rory's "Gift" ~ A whispered in my ear..a poem ~

[Dwana Horner]

SPECIAL (This is the tribute for Rory Gallagher gone 20 years June 14th)

God made one Rory
(and he was done)
He blessed him with Music
(and he was done)
He gave Rory a handsome face
(and he was done)
He gave Rory a smile that lit up a room
(and he was done)
He gave him eyes of Blue
(and he was done)
He gave him a talent
(and it was done)
He gave Rory a gentle soul
(and it was done)
He showed him the way of the Strat
(and it was done)
He made his name known to some
(and it was done)
He allowed us to meet
(and it was done)
God told Rory to Travel
(and it was done)
God decided he play concerts
(and it was done)
God gave him a Voice
(and it was done)
God saw that Rory was tired
(and it was done)
God saw that Rory was worn down
(and it was done)
Maybe Rory said "God I'm tired, I want to go home."
(and it was done)
God said "Come Home Rory, you're done"
(and it was done)
God said 'I'll whisper your name on the winds."
(and it was done)
I will put Rory in her dreams
(and it was done)
God decided to intense my premonitions
(and it was done)
God told Rory "Go help her with her grief."'
(and it was done)
God decided "I'll let her see your spirit,."
(and it was done)
God decided to put me in a deep abys of sleep
(and it was done)
God said "she will wake up with a jolt."
(and it was done)
God said "she demanded I give you back to her."
(and it was done)
God told Rory "Stop her tears"
(and it was done)
God said "I'll let her hear your voice in dreams>"
(and it was done)
God told Rory.. "She will remember every vision."
(and it was done)
God told Rory.. "I'm sending you to protect her."
(and believe me.. It's been done."
(I decided to put this here a bit early. some of you maybe at tributes and doing
thing to honor Rory's memory. I wrote this last month and the words spilled out
of my soul like watching a waterfall in a tropical Island )

Beautiful poem Dwana. Subrata.x

[Dwana Horner]

Rory knows what's in your soul
(all he has to do is look)
Rory knows what's in your thoughts
(all he has to do is see them)
Rory knows our very voice
(All he has to do is listen)
Rory knows my dreams before I have them
( All he has to do is clear the mist)
Rory knows I'm trying to learn guitar
( He sends me lessons to practice)
Rory knows every time we say his name out loud
(When we play "A Million Miles Away")

[Dwana Horner]

Irish is in the soul
(You don't have to be born there)
Irish in the music
(You don't have to play it to feel it)
Irish in your determination
(You need not the strength of "Sampson")
Irish in your dancing
(You need not be a "Michael Flatley")
Irish in your thinking
(You have no need to brag about it)
Irish In the way you walk
(You just need the Attitude)

[Dwana Horner]

Cover me in Irish.
To block out the bad
Cover me in Irish
To keep in the glad
Cover me in Irish..
To block out the sad

Cover me in Irish
To block out the past
Cover me in Irish
To make it last
Cover me in Irish
to keep my dreams

Cover me in Irish
To block the dark
Cover me in Irish
To walk in a park
Cover me in Irish
To keep the Story

Cover me in Irish
To keep it "Rory"

[SUBY1974]

Cover me in Irish.
To block out the bad
Cover me in Irish
To keep in the glad
Cover me in Irish..
To block out the sad

Cover me in Irish
To block out the past
Cover me in Irish
To make it last
Cover me in Irish
to keep my dreams

Cover me in Irish
To block the dark
Cover me in Irish
To walk in a park
Cover me in Irish
To keep the Story

Cover me in Irish
To keep it "Rory"

Another Christmas without you Rory
Sometimes it feels so strange
I can "feel" the silence
Dreams the angles can arrange

Another christmas without you Rory
Some days the pain comes again'
So I 'talk" to God and I know I'm "heard"
He sends you to me in dreams
and once again you keep me sane.

March 2nd Rory's 68th Birthday

I have this bottle of Irish whiskey
I take a nip to "Salute your memory"
I have this bottle of Irish Whiskey
I'm no longer in mourning
I have this bottle of Irish Whiskey
To my heart you have the "Key"
I have this bottle of Irish Whiskey
Wishing Rory a happy Birthday
I have this bottle of Irish Whiskey
I will love him to my last day
I have this bottle of Irish Whiskey
To "Rory, I have one thing to say
Rory Gallagher- you did it your way

[Dwana Horner]

Rory's Eyes

You know everytime I see a baby smiling ]
at me and giggling?
(They all had your eyes)

When I'm alone, I feel my heartrate speeding up
and I "feel" a warm glow inside?
(I know its you with me)

When strangers come into the house, for any reason?
(I "feel" your eyes watching)
When I'm troubled, had a bad dream-
(I know I'll "see" you looking with your eyes)

Rory's Eyes, see my dreams, my past, my now, happy, sad, depressed
(Your Eyes see my all)
Even when I'm totally alone, when bad memories of my past
"Turn off my light"
I feel you like a "Shield" you block my dark entities, negativities,
the past that I cant change..

(I've got Rory's Eyes)
Rory's Eyes
Rory's Eyes
Rory's Eyes

[Dwana Horner]

THE SHIELD

Something that "Covers" me
Someone who once "Lived"
A person I knew
A soul now Free

I fear- He's "There"
A world that's toxic poison
humanity has lost it's soul
I "Feel" him near me
stroking my "hair"

He finds me when I sleep
Sees me when I'm awake
even when I'm alone - I'm not
There's no hill too steep

I talk to you every story
Whatever happened that day
you know what's in my soul
The "Shield" has a name-
I call him "Rory"
