A NIGHTING GALE

 SHE WAS EVERYMANS DREAM

AS SHE WALKED SLOW SHOWING ALL HER SEAMS

SHE WAS A LADY FULL OF BEUTY AND GRACE

SHE BROUGHT JOY AND HOPE

TO ALL OF THE HUMAN RACE

SHE WAS TALL AND SLEEK

SHE HELD EVERYONE

AS SHE STARTED TO SPEAK

HER HAIR WAS SOFT AND LONG

SHE WAS LIKE A NIGHTING GALE

WHEN SHE SANG A SONG

SHE WAS SOFT AND TENDER

IN EVERYTHING SHE WOULD DO

HER TOUCH COULD ALWAYS COMFORT YOU

HER EYES HAD A SPECIAL STARE

THEY HAD A WONDERFUL GLOW

 FULL OF TENDER CARE

SHE HAD A HEART OF GOLD

SHE WAS FORTHRIGHT AND BOLD

SHE LOOKED UPON EVERYONE THE SAME

THIS BEAUTIFULL LADY

SHE HAD NO SHAME

WHO COULD THIS LADY BE

DOES SHE LOOK LIKE ANYONE YOU CAN SEE

MAYBE SHE LOOKS LIKE YOU

OR COULD SHE LOOK LIKE ME

YOU SHOULD TAKE A LONG LOOK

INTO YOUR HEART AND SOUL

THEN LOOK INTO THE MIRROR AND TELL ME

WHO do YOU SEE?

Could You BE THIS LADY that is honest and true

Is it THAT’ LADY’S REFLECTION

That IS SHINNING BACK AT YOU
