Owen
Owen you were so cute
and your pranks were such a hoot
Foley and others loved you it's true
your death was so tragic and out of the blue
Owen you are missed by many a fan
pics of your death we should ban
in our memories you will always be
for your death someone will pay the fee
Owen from a great family you came
for your fall we just don't know who to blame
you had such a twinkle in your eye
when from the top turn buckle you would fly
Owen in you we lost a great friend
but we will love you till the end
wrestling will never be the same show
with out your smile and that Hart glow
Owen replace you we never will
your name no longer top bill
Bret is the HitMan Hart
from him your memory will never part
Owen you were a champion in many ways
surrounding your death there is such a haze
maybe one day we will all know
just what happened to stop the Owen Hart show
Hi Renee Well, I am not really into wrestling, sorry!!! But I could feel the emotions in this one.. I liked the read! Roz :)
Oh, god Renee' I remember when this happened. There was a show scheduled here the next night that I was supposed to announce at (dj) and they cancelled of course, but much controversary arose. I couldn't believe that they would even consider going on (and they did consider it) after such a tragedy. I told the promoters that I wouldn't be a part of the announcing because I felt that the fans needed to mourn. Very sad that a stupid mistake, a stupid stunt killed a man. Wrestling, I think goes a little too far outside the realm of reality. The wrestlers and fans get confused about what is real-and what is not. That kind of mystery will always surround his life and death. Who knows? It could have been just some VERY SICK, twisted marketing ploy. These people will stop at nothing to sell their product, I assure you of that! Anyway, great subject, very well-written poem, Renee' Thank you for posting it and the question of what happened to the great Owen Hart?
I met Owen Hart on a few occasions during my childhood years and I really liked and respected the guy. I could tell that he really cared for his fans and his job. He will truley be missed. This poem is a great dedication to him.
This poem means alot to me.... and i am glad to see that a couple of others liked it.... this was a very special man in the business of wrestling... and he is truly missed....he was something to behold.... thanks for the wonderful words of encouragement....
Well, i remember this Owen guy from my childhood days...remember him with blond hair and twinkling eyes (yes, indeeed Renee), big and stout in built. 'The Rocket' Owen Hart....who was so envious of his brother Bret...they had several bigtime duels together...WWF called it the Brother's Brawl or something... How sad a life can be extinguished jus like dat....his fiery spirit still lives...explored so nicely in ur poem, Renee....... really nice poem. Thanxs...U brought back memories of him too.
I must admit; I am not a wrestling fan... However, I do indeed like this poem very much!
