In Honor of Gladys Bullock, May She Rest In Peace

What a Pleasure to see you coming down the Street Cause you were So friendly and So sweet The nicest person anyone could ever meet Never to do Evil did you walk your feet Although, at times, were you forced to bring the heat So that the bad things, We wouldn't Repeat As you did when I, myself, of a good frienship did cheat Being it was your Nature to always be discreet Looking all sharp, matching from head to feet Wearing stylish hats and your hair so neat Proud Mama with devoted daughters to make your life complete Enjoying good company and soul food to eat Which you to be a part of, would do, in a heartbeat Often, on the go, come hail, snow or sleet For one monkey your destination couldn't defeat Having the energy in which the Energizer bunny couldn't compete Always Smiling, to have known you was A Special Treat At the right hand of the Father, you definitely earned that Seat
