Abby Van Gerpen
Have you ever had a dream that you never let go of?
And do you truly believe in the goodness from above?
Well if the answer is no, read carefully,
And learn something from a lady named Abby.
She's the face of optimism,
Rich in hope,
The incarnation of bravery,
With failure, she copes.
Maybe she's realized,
That there's no such thing,
As success and failure,
when play is king.
And play she does,
Up on stage.
She'll still be acting and singing in old age,
But her heart of a lion will stay young like a cub's,
Because music is her food of love.
Vowels so sour, consonants sweet,
Umami melody and a bitter beat,
Her ears feast to recharge the soul.
She dishes it back out, singing songs from musicals.
So if your still reading..
The takeaway is to sing,
Play, act, be sarcastic and try not to cling,
To an idea of happiness off in the distance,
Because it's here every moment if you look and you listen.
Thank you, Abby, for your smile and your spirit.
Amen.
I'll see you when we do the time warp again.
