This is a poem I wrote about Ronnie my senior year of high school in 97, just wanted to share with everyone.

This is a man people should know quite well,
He wrote songs that would make a down heart swell.

He sang of a bird hat was proud and free,
As free as we can only hope to be.

This is a man whose songs everyone should sing,
With his band and guitar licks blistering.

Where this band and man could have went, God knows,
Playing in cities with all sold out shows.

In the time of all this fame and stardom,
This man never lost touch with fans or home.

Ah, but on day twenty of October,
A dream so true and so sweet was over.

Many fans from all fifty states around,
Came to see where the Freebird hit the ground.

And now that our Ronnie Van Zant is gone,
His memory, his fans shall carry on.
