Ode

A man almost synonymous to laughter and fun

Whose words and contagious smile could bring warmth like the sun

Left the world, consumed by depression

So, what does it say about our society, or humanity?

It says more than you can decipher

That's because, you too are just human, sir!

But this man was no ordinary

He was a genie, a poet, a fighter...

The world saw and applauded his smiling bright disposition

Did we wonder that could just be a mere illusion?

He suffered and how, but made us laugh till it hurt

Spreading his wisdom through the comic word

When he set his foot on stage

He did nothing but amaze

A performer, an artist and a master of his art in every way

I still remember when I heard him say - "Seize the day!"

Carpe Diem Carpe Diem

Rest in joy, Robin Williams!
