Tina Turner

Tina Turner was the Queen of Rock 'n' Roll She earned her dues for music's cause On stage she played her regal role Belting out tunes to thunderous applause With hits like "Proud Mary" She had fans screaming in the aisles As the big wheel kept turning on the ferry On a musical journey of many miles She had some rough times with Ike But eventually she took freedom's flight Her song, "I Don't Wanna Fight, Summed up her feelings on the mic Her song, "Whats Love Got To Do With It" Described those times well Yet she blazed a musical trail that was well lit In her songs her memory will dwell 6-5-2023 What's Love Got to Do with It - Poetry Contest Sponsor: John Anderson
