The soul has much to say
Whitney...
My preference
Remembering
the girl who
grew up 40 minutes
away
First daughter
of New Jersey
Dream girl of a
teenage boy
circa 1988
Seeing that smile
before the world
placed its clutches
around your tenderness
The dawning of superstardom
A "once in a lifetime"
packaged in a 5'8 frame
Spirit and beauty
enfolded by unmatched
talent
Quintessential Songbird
Cut from the mold of Aretha
but with something extra
A shooting star that reached
rarefied air
Now you sing in
the greatest choir
being assembled
Heaven is your home
You'll be missed
Simply the greatest voice
...of my lifetime
