Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Celine Dion

I remember her as a young teen
A prodigy newly discovered
A stellar virtuoso
Her voice was like no other

Born to entertain with passion
Programmed to excel
She saw her talent as a gift
Meant to share with the world

She went for her dream with zeal
Her focus unwavering
The planet hers to conquer
She never hesitated

I followed her through the years
All the way to superstardom
A powerhouse role model for all
Who dare to be audacious

She is so modest and down to earth that she really would be touched. And that truly is her most outstanding quality. Thanks for your lovely visit and compliment, Paula.

Yes she is a wonderful singer, my ex brother in law knew her before she became famous, he used to play tennis with her, and he said she was always down the earth. I dont' think that changed after she became popular . Enjoyed your poem dear Line. xo

No but I saw Cher who is his absolute fave. It was her last show of her "last" concert at Caesar's.
