Poems and Dreams- Ruchir Saha

Part One:

Andy Warhol

A man who was born as an artist

He had a variety of his artwork like a list

From the basic skills of hand drawing and painting

To the miracle of printing and silk screening.                                                                        
These are a few of his favorite things

The 1960’s were his time

That’s when he was in his prime                                                                                          

His masterpieces made him an American icon                                                              
Coca-Cola bottles and his famous Campbell soup cans on and on                                      
As well as a few paintings of the celebrities he liked.

He also produced a rock band, so was found                                                                    

The famous punk music band The Velvet Underground                                                      
In his studio, The Factory they were the house band                                                      
Their punk style became known across the land                                                            
Another way he shaped the era.

From improper care after surgery he died                                      

Buried with a bottle of “Beautiful” by his side.

Part Two:

When I was young, my wild dream I ever had was to become a space astronaut who can travel to the moon.  If I had a chance or opportunity to achieve that dream, then I would spend time to pursue two majors, which are astronomy and aeronautic science. Then I would spend a long time in the Air Force or JROTC to master the abilities and skills like an astronaut has.  If I could do all that, I think I would become a fortunate billionaire in the future with of the one of richest jobs in the world.  Also, I believe I would set a World Record to be known as the “second Neil Armstrong”.  In other words, I care about becoming popular and famous in the world.
