INTRODUCTION


















This page contains a series of poems I wrote some time ago, inspired by CSI: Miami's character "Tim Speedle" (aka "Speed"), and Rory Cochrane - the actor who played him.
I first posted them on a CBS forum thread for the show (by the way, thanks to all the fellow fans who were so kind in their comments), but I can't seem to find it anymore and it's probable it has been removed.
I also posted them on my main blog, but since the theme is so specific and it's highly unlikely I will be writing any more of them, I kind of felt they deserved a little space of their own.
Please enjoy.

      Hi, Dan!
      I apologize for the late reply; I only saw your comment yesterday.
      Thank you so much for your feedback about my poems :)
      I’m afraid I don’t currently have work that is not already posted on blog (either this one or daisy-planet.blogspot.com, where I have poems and short stories in Portuguese and English).

A GOODBYE POEM FOR SPEED

Image
The moment you came along You cast a spell on me And from that moment on I could not get my eyes off the TV I liked to see your often sullen face Whenever you were working on some trace And your ironic, sarcastic ways Used to brighten my days Until one day you exhaled your last breath In the arms of a friend you met your violent death A bullet knocked you to the floor And suddenly you were no more Helplessly I watched you bleed And just like that I lost my Speed Now I am forced to say goodbye To my favourite CSI And because of that fatal uncleaned gun I'm like the Earth without her Sun And for all my pain and grief There is only one relief Even if never again will I be able to see Tim Nothing can take away my memories of him This was the first one I wrote inspired by Speed's death, in episode "Lost Son".

CELEBRATING SPEED'S LIFE

When I first saw you working a crime scene Your quick sarcasm made me think you mean But I soon realized it was part of your charming wit And if the moment required it, you could also be sweet. And when you helped save people from a fire In that club where things went suddenly haywire I learned you could also be brave... Even if you couldn’t always behave!

The way you used to squint When looking at some print, And those dark long eyelashes That dazzled me more than your camera flashes, Or the fact that you always kept so serious Made you look so ...
