Oklahoma
Sky:
A Tribute to Tim Samaras, Paul Samaras, and
Carl Young
Bravery
embodied,
And genius
unrestrained
Tim Samaras
had it down
He chased
the skies unfeigned
He always
knew what he should do
How to be safe,
and where to go
He knew his
limits, and others’ too
And never
chased just for the show
Meteorologists
and storm chasers,
Those who
knew him know
The work he
did saved countless lives
He died a
true hero
So what
Twistex did won’t be forgotten
And cruel
tragedy dim
Cannot
remove the legacy
Of Carl,
Paul, and Tim.
We
lost the best
And
as the rest
We’ll
stand with candles bright
And
remember, pay tribute
To
the men
Who
died that terrible night.
For
the sky reached down
And
took them home
Beneath
the Oklahoma sky
But
as God is willing
Their
spirits are still with us
For
legends never die.
