Lily Valentine

I'm here to tell a timely tale
Of lovely Lily Valentine
It may be slightly slanted
She's a relationship of mine
She's the daughter of my daughter
She has great talent in her voice
Since her early days of childhood
Music always was her choice
Was the lead in most the musicals
Was Drum Major of the band
Sight reads all the music notes
I just barely understand
Plays piano and the French horn
Maybe others, that's her game
Directs an a cappella group
Gemini Boulevard its name
They compete with other college groups
Awards for her are quite a few
She's been named the best soloist
And the best arranger too
Tried out to be professional
Was just the other day
For Musae, an a cappella group
Here are some words they had to say
We loved the way you interviewed
The way you used your voice
The way you copied Windex
Hands down you are our choice
Now she's on another branch
To climb the music tree
I know she has no bigger fan
Than her pop pop, that is me
