She Got Kisses, What’s A Standing Ovation?
“I know I’ve no beautiful voice and just sing simple, easy
songs. When I was invited to sing in the Paulus church on Sunday, men and
women, not only the old, kissed me. How happy I am.” So said a woman.
What’s a standing ovation in the Carnegie Hall of Fame and
she’s over 80.
And I thought of my little star, I could kiss her, though
there’s almost no one would clap for her. She never won a prize in singing, but
she won a prize - her voice was so rich, so warm, so natural, ... - in my
heart. This is an early poor recording with my i Pad.
And I would pray God to never let her know how beautiful
she sings to keep her innocent, as true as an unspoiled child.
So said the Choir Conductor to me.
