Beyond the Door there is a Peace for you I am Sure

 

Your voice

Was that of one of a kind

The sound, beauty

Coupled with your dimplish smile

Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure

From a deep rooted musical Family

Your voice was first and foremost

Then you came to the screen

A household name you became

Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure

A voice perhaps was your instrument

Of which hit the highest notes

A well trained singer

Who brought about the best

Setting you apart from the rest

Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure

Your exit from the scene

Only came to be realized

By way of the exploitive tabloids

Fame does come with a price

Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure

You announced your come back

Everyone was elated

For many there was the deep desire

To hear again the voice

The one which enriched our lives

With the voice

Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure

Now you can sing with the angels

Yet you did leave us much too fast

While we digest the memories

Of a voice, legend whose songs

Shall remain within our souls

May you rest in peace Whitney

  1. Beyond the door there is a peace for you I am sure...Now you can sing with the angels...
    She's now far from so much unhappiness she faced in her life, when I think about Whitney I can't avoid remember how abused she was by her husband.
    Love can destroy a life....indeed.

  2. There is an mp3 here and I decided to do a tribute to her within my own manner.
    I thought for a little and then wished to combine the tribute with the an upside.
    It's a void of a day within the entertainment world. Who really knows the situation.
    But there were so many posts on the internet that I thought I would make my own.
    I did hesitate as I was doing it as I loved here music. Thus the poem Elaine.

    I wanna dance with somebody was the first time I hear one of her songs and
    I thought she was right up there dimples and with a vibrancy. I believe the song
    came from here first album.

  7. Pamela, I wrote five versions, and then decided to post it.
    She was a talent but life does move on but she did impact
    so many. Now she is back in New Jersey.

  8. She certainly was and I was writing with music within mind.
    There were so many things that one could write. I am not
    sure Doug who was within that timeframe where you would
    head to a night club and when you walked in back then
    you would hear her and you knew it was going to be
    a good night. I know I am inclined to music.

    She was great and sometimes it's beyond words
    but for myself there was a connection with her.
    And may she rest in peace.
