Lady Day

Jazzy
voice singing sweet.

A life lived incomplete.

Her songs
live on.

The
essence never gone.

Sultry
sounds running through.

Oh…The Very
Thought of You.

Sit and listen for awhile.

After
that play God Bless the Child.

Lady Day
your spirit’s clear.

In every blessed
tune I hear.

An Iconic
singer of grace.

No one can forget your talent and place.

Ryan!  Yes, Billy Holiday was one of a kind.  She was a "unique" the will never be anyone like her again!  She had a hard life and died without friend or family near her but she left a great legacy.  Great write!
