Listen to the silence It's louder than before A Lion now has left us We no longer hear his roar A poet of the people His voice a summer storm The lion now is silenced Now silence is the norm Read the words he's written Listen to the voice The lion has entrapped you You do not have a choice We were in his story He touched us to our core Now, the lion...he is silenced And Bart Wolffe will roar no more

A Lion Silenced (for Bart Wolffe RIP)
Listen to the silence It's louder than before A Lion now has left us We no longer hear his roar A poet of the people His voice a summer storm The lion now is silenced Now silence is the norm Read the words he's written Listen to the voice The lion has entrapped you You do not have a choice We were in his story He touched us to our core Now, the lion...he is silenced And Bart Wolffe will roar no more
