That voice that voice such a perfect choice
It lifts our spirits to new heights
So haunting yet undaunting it carries us away
To a place of renewal
To an expanded reverie.
And that angelic face has found its place
Amid the strife and daily flurries
It helps us see beyond our worries
But all the while somehow we know
You are a gift meant for everyone.
You help us find within our senses
That in the seeing we find our being
That in the hearing we lose our fearing
That in the sharing we may find caring
You light the spark within us all
That when we raise our voices in song
We find the place where we belong.
Such a treasure for all the world
May your days ahead bring you
The same peace and joy and love
That you bring to all of us.

A wonderful tribute to a great talent. The video reminded me of the first time I saw her on America's Got Talent and she stunned the audience with that adult voice coming from a young girl. YouTube and these talent shows are presenting us with a whole new generation of wonderful talent.
I agree with everything you say. She's just about the most angelic singer I have ever seen. She is well-dressed too like an angel and sings like one. Her voice is so rich it is AMAZING!!!!!
I went online and listened to her sing that song and then I read your poem again. This is beyond beautiful! A wonderful tribute to this angel who sang this. Love can last forever. I'm married 30 years to my forever love. This song and your poem reminded me of how lucky I am. Thank you
