The Passing of Michael Jackson.

His name was Michael Jackson,
Born on the 29th August, 1958;
When he was young, his skin was the colour of chocolate,
And he had his childhood a little too late.

A painfully shy child before,
In a band called the 'Jackson Five';
And their music was upbeat and funky,
Making anyone break into a jive.

He shot up to major stardom,
With his 1st solo album 'Off The Wall',
That made the top five in the charts,
Including so many amazing songs that I cant recall.

He had the voice; the dance moves; the fortune,
But the fame seemed to get to him,
Not affecting his music,
But making him bleach his skin.

Michael Jackson was a strange person,
Who wanted intense privacy,
But he had made a mark on his fans,
Making him a pop legacy.

His songs were inspirational;
'Black Or White' will forever be in my mind,
or his famous 'Thriller',
or his other amazing song 'Remember The Time'.

So it was a devastating shock,
When he passed away this morning;
Shock tainting the fans,
But I just wanted him to know that the whole world is mourning.
