Lee Beaumont died at fifteen. He played a mean guitar. He was an excellent swimmer. People said he would go far. A conscientious student, Lee would usually pull an A. He had a lot of friends. But now he's gone away. I wonder what it means To die young instead of old. To miss the intervening years, To lie so lovely cold. I know to Lee himself It's neither good nor bad, But to those of us who loved him It's unutterably sad.
