Glittery Shoes

She is brown and she has curls
When she smiles, her eyes shined like pearls

She has a gift and that is LOVE
She gave it so freely to everyone below and above...

She was the energy, she was the vibe
Every place she went, she made her tribe!

Glittery shoes and silky clothes,
Her dreams where above and beyond the walls...

Stay kind and have courage they said,
She practiced it so well, she could be a maid!

Confidence took time but made it's way,
When she wore those shoes, it made her fly..

Well, she did have her ups and downs
But learnt well to deal with the clowns

Today she knows if it's clowns or Kings
For she took her time to learn with her own wings...

She danced her pain out and believed in a new day
For happiness is the key! Just force it, I say.. 

Her talents are many but she loves to pray 
She has seen the magic, you can say if you stay...
