Josh

This poem is dedicated to Josh Deegan of the Sturt Football Club in Sputh Australia who died in the October 12 Bali Bombings

It started as a great night in Bali
A big bash at the Sari Club
You were still on a high from the premiership less then a week ago
YOu were so young and carefree

Then terror struck
2 car bombs exploded- 1 at Padi's and 1 at Sari's
People were climbing over people trying to escape the fear of being trapped
You were calling 'Sturt Sturt' trying to find your mates
The roof was collapsing trapping you and others in the rubble
It was then you left us

When we heard of your death we just collapsed in tears of grief
But now we know that your in a better place, a peaceful place
All I'm saying is 'Goodbye Josh'
