2010/01/14 Susan Boyle’s Story Poem by Margaret Alice

Susan Boyle’s Story related by Piers Morgan
eating humble pie, admitting being nasty when
she appeared first time, a YouTube sensation
took the world by storm after her rendition of ‘I
Dreamt A Dream’ - I am so delighted

The Ugly Duckling turned out to be a swan, I
am satisfied miracles still happen, even if I am
scared of them, watching Pierce’s discomfiture
when she first appeared, swallowing in shock
when he heard her voice so clear ring out

Buscaglia said we should dream without fear
he was proven right by the world embracing
Susan Boyle, America entranced with her -
sold platinum records – this is the stuff
special, grandiose dreams are made of

I love her for it, so does everyone else, three
cheers for Susan Boyle, we love your courage,
your talent, your bravery in facing the world’s
contempt and overcoming it, sweetly crying
in public, Elaine Page saluting you

Danny Osmond visiting – every dream come
true! – What is my own dream, there’s a big
problem, I want to inspire people while re-
maining unseen, invisible, is such a
project viable? Only time will tell…
