To Angelina

Where once there was a jaded soul
I am now transformed
Into a vibrant lover of life;
Somewhere deep inside the innocence
Of your being
There is a connection between
Your soul the universe and me;
It arrives on the waves and
the glory of music;

An angelic smile
Wrapped in a sultry voice
And coated with purity;
What a combination!
It transports me
To new places
With timeless melodies
From the American Song Book;

The old is young again
The familiar has new life;
Professionals and lovers
of life are smitten;

It’s too trite to say
A star is born
Because you were
Born 15 years ago;
And now you are a
Seasoned veteran
Who is taking your rightful
Place on the Avenue of Songs
Along with the best of singers
Who ever graced
the stage of Life.

back from his resting place:

Every Time We Say Goodbye
