Little Gifts

I had an elder friend
Visit me not too long ago
I asked her to join me in song
On my backyard patio

As the music played
She suddenly began to sing
A tune off key in her own words
To the song "Good Night Irene"

What a blessing that day
Bestowed upon me to see
With a chuckle she ended her tune
And that was her great Little Gift to me!
