Amelia Jones Poem by Nancy Hamann

Amelia Jones is a woman I know with a heart truly made of gold.

With a smile that lights up the skies and that special twinkle in her eyes.

She taught me to love this dance and not to give up under any circumstance.

I named her the Sergeant because of the way she taught so stringent.
“C’mon on Nancy” – hand slapped across my thigh – “right foot, left foot, you know this! ”

Patiently she stayed by my side never letting me slide.

Telling me all the while, “you got it”, with just her smile.

Every time we are together is like a family that gathers.

We laugh and dance and drink until we no longer can think.

I am truly blessed by the gift that God has sent in this woman I know as Amelia Jones.
