Carol Pomerantz
I will look for your sunshine smile
On the Venice Ocean Front . . .
Carol sang her carols
And drew lovely pictures
Of birds, fairies and angels
Now you are an angel with rainbow wings . . .
Carole, you were the light of Venice . . .
Always a smile and a happy word
Even when you were sick
Pushing your walker
To the Levine Center
You still had a laugh
A song and a hello to all the babies . . .
Your healing touch
To the young & old
Even to my pooch . . .
An old but young soul
Still wearing your hippie beads
And colorful hippie clothes
Like when you sang and danced
In the 60s and 70s . . .
Old flower child
Filled with love
And kindness for all . . .
Gentle soul . . .
Love pouring out from you
Like the sun warming up the Venice Walk
Even on a freezing winter day . . .
Another old burning flame extinguished
Like another blazing sunset
On Venice beach . . .
The beachfront is much colder
With your passing—
Please beam some of your love and warmth
Down on us from above . . .
—Marty Liboff
