A Girl Who Loved to Sing

There was a girl who loved to sing

It gave her meaning.

She practiced everyday

To - one day - climb the stage

And when her friends came by to play

She practiced everyday.

She practiced day and night

Aim: the future spotlight

So when her parents came to talk

She practiced day and night.

She practiced to be known

A space for her to show

Her gifts; and when the moment came

She'd practiced to be known.

She practiced and practiced up to the day

With trembling she climbed that coveted stair

She looked out on that much wished audience.

She stared, yes, she did stare

Then sang without a care

After all, it was her day

Though nobody was there.
