                                                                   The Voice Of An Angel

           When she was born,

              they didn't give her a chance

              born pre-mature with legs

              so frail, she'd never learn 

              how to dance.

           But she was a fighter,

             she wouldn't give in

             while dreams of her dancing

             would come to an end

             another would begin.

           Then one night 

             she started to hum

             little did they know

             there was more to come.

           Ten years later 

             she went to a talent show 

             just to try out,

             her parents knew she would win

             this they had no doubt.

           Confined to a wheelchair

              she came out on stage

              opened up her songbook

              and turned the page.

           Like an Angel

             she looked so proud

             and when she started singing

             there wasn't a dry eye among the crowd.

           She got a standing ovation,

             and as the audience wiped

             back their tears, 

             that beautiful Angel 

             just suddenly disappeared.

          Where did she come from?

             everyone wanted to know,

             how did she get here?,

             and where did she go?

          A beautiful Angel

             never given a chance

             and now because of her beautiful voice

             anybody can dance.
