Barbra Saw

exciting
singing is exciting
happy and glad
and sad all
at one time
go
go with it
go sing with it
be glad with it
ring with it…

some like her
some do not
some know wonderful
is a lot
to ask for

but she
she held the key
she sang
He is Wonderful
and looked at
him
his name is
Jim
and to her
he is Wonderful

a favorite play
a movie grand
but when they play
He is Wonderful
I revert to a stand
of a loving woman
one who forgives
one who lives
for someone
wonderful

so…if your
wonderful is
with you tonight
treat him right
say Yes…

and if love
then becomes
the easy share
in a chair
for two

go there…

for roses
see snow in
love…

and in a night
sublime
see,
see your Valentine

and
entwine

This particular part grabbed me in her Timeless show tonight...but then as I continued to watch the rest, and tear up at various parts, I saw, as the world did....that the whole concert was for Jim....and for her father...

fathers, and true loves....are....Timeless....

thank you both....

I've always felt a close kinship to her...perhaps it's the age...perhaps the nose...I don't know....but I adore her voice...thank you Mr. Yeats....
