Tribute to Jerome

Ohio Steeler · 06-07-2006, 10:05 AM

I recieved this in an email and thought I would post it here for you all to read and enjoy.

Quote:

You always dreamed you'd get there; though this season I knew,
To play in the biggest game of all; and play it where you grew.

Your parents going state to state; watching you with pride.
Getting ever closer to your biggest ride.

As your pounded yard by yard, to get your team the score
I knew that you were destined
I knew that there was more.

I'll watch you Supberbowl Sunday,
My eyes will not be dry,
As you hold the Lombardi Trophy,
raising it to the sky.

If this be your final season,
be your final game,
I'll still watch the Steelers,
but it just won't be the same.

What a fitting finish,
for the best in the NFL mix,
The future hall of famer,
my favorite and the greatest #36.

- Catherine

Great post OS! Rep points for that! Seein all this good poetry I'm tempted to maybe make up some of my own tribute lyrics. I'll have to think bout that. Peace.
