"Shoot for the moon! Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars."~ Les Brown


It took only one powerful word
It took only one day
It took only one

 

She spoke with such speech
She spoke with waking curiosity
She spoke only to her close friends

 

Intrigued by world news
Intellect beyond understanding
Inspired from her deepest thoughts

 

Grasping the spotlight like she was born for it
Glancing at every contact point in the room
Gladly sharing her voice

 

Light as a feather on her feet
Crack! goes the board
Triumph radiates off of her

 

Sunny as a sun set
Silly as a kookaburra
Simple beauty like a flower

 

One two! One two!
Never missing the beat
Every move sharp and precise

 

She has created characters her friends envy
She has plots that her friends have tantrums about
She has succeeded in making several quizzes of her friends

 

Moving across the room with confidence
Captivated by the interest of the audience
Stating one side from the other with tolerance

 

She sings and dances to her own tune
She speaks and writes with  spell bounding power
She was and will forever be Joan
