She was just ole mammy’s girl Dancing to her own tune Smilin’ for naught at all They called her Liza June She may have been a simple girl But she held love for all No hatred felt within her heart She lived by an angel’s call They taunted her with ferocity But still her smile remained Their slaps and smacks unfelt by her No matter how much they pained In a world that God gave to her She smiled as she danced alone Simple, yes, you could say she was But she had no sin to atone “Love ‘em all, I surely do” she sang as her feet kept time ‘God gave us all roads to walk and mountains tall to climb’ “And I will climb the tallest yet with love for everyone resting on the peak one day I’ll know my work is done’ Liza June danced on and on Touched lives with each smile Touched heart with her bravery As she walked pure down God’s mile. |

There is a Liza June in all of us and I sure wish she would come out more often. Well you know I do recall knowing a very little Miss Liza Dolittle once, and as she grew bigger, so did her heart. Being simple sometimes is the best way to see this world I think. Oh goodness I do believe you have me thinking here! A lovely poem that carries a big message. |

You've been writing more lately... I'm sure hoping this portends to all of us a fullness of literary inspiration from your pen in the coming New Year! Thank you, PdV! |

“Love ‘em all, I surely do” she sang as her feet kept time ‘God gave us all roads to walk and mountains tall to climb’ “And I will climb the tallest yet with love for everyone resting on the peak one day I’ll know my work is done’ I loved hearing about your "Liza June", also, and would love to hear more, Sharon.  Hugs,  Ethel |
