A joy inside does make one weep Such tears that feed this life’s reward From human gift, a joy does reap As parts of lost become restored Emotions face does call thy name As voice of angel’s song does sing All wayward thoughts become the same And beauty to the mind does bring The inner shields fall far away Releasing pure thought and sigh The stress of once it fades away And doubts of beauty say goodbye How wonderful a gift to meet To join ones soul and mind as one To feel the height and soar the peek To feel a warmth, then find the sun |

Thanks Roniece, once again your visit was enjoyed, listening to Susan Boyle was wonderful, just seeing the expressions on the judges faces pulled the heart and soul strings, thanks again my friend. |

What a lovely tribute! *S* And I think you've captured part of what has her reaching so many hearts... she's sharing the gift she's been granted. *S* |

Dear suthern, great to see you here, it was amazing to listen to and to watch, the voice is an angel's and the expressions on the faces were unreal, I could watch it and watch it, makes one happy to be alive and to share such a moment.

Yes, Rick, her voice is a joy to hear and the light on her face is her beauty. Thank you for recognizing a moment that seemed to remind us all that beauty is not always visible. Alison |
