I love this photo of Freddie Mercury, which Marian shared on tonight's Imaginary Garden With Real Toads prompt.
A Tribute to the King of Queen
He made a lot of people happy
He set a lot of spirits free
I never was a killer queen
But he made me feel like it was okay to be me
Onstage, he was flashy
Offstage, a quiet soul
Secret struggles and inner demons
Eventually took their toll
I dreamed of him after his passing
He gave my cheek a little kiss
He said "thank you, my friend, for thinking of me"
I told him he would always be missed
He is missed to this day
And well remembered
~Cie~
Note:
The dream part is true
