GOD BLESS THE CHILD Born 100 Years Ago Today:

________________________________________________________________________________________________




The strong gets more 
The weak ones fade 
Empty pockets don't ever 
Make the grade 
Mama may have,
Papa may have 
God bless the child 
that's got his own 







He may work
In a mysterious way

But He blessed this world
100 years ago today:

April 7, 1915
Begat Billie Holiday

She wore a magnolia
To cover the pain

But when she sang
Uber-talent did reign.






100,000 websites
honor her birth
the true value of  Her worth
to the planet
we call Earth?

Praise can defy
order of rank
So let us quote...
a  singer named Frank:
Billie Holiday was, and still remains,                                    
Frank Sinatra

Is it rude to say: "Listen, dude: click right  here  for some SOLITUDE?"

Quoting a woman named  "Detty"  is the last thing we will say:
God blessed the ears that listen to Billie Holiday.
