Jazz to Line Your Halo by Trisha De GraciaLife offers no more richness than
to sing the blues with soul and art,
to rumble from the gravelly depths
these sounds so full of life and callus.
You teach the world of suffering with
the sweetest irrevocable tunes
that bellow from heart and mind
and wring forth tears from stingy eyes.
You sing
like no mere mortal can
and from our ashen bodies
create jazz to line your halo.
