Jill tells us about Aretha



They were all good, but I loved loved loved Jill Scoggins' haiku about Aretha Franklin:

With calm confidence,
she let loose on ‘Divas’ and
showed them how it’s DONE.

Mariah, Celine,
Shania, Gloria, all
were diva posers.

Her voice was bigger,
warmer, sultrier. That stage 
was hers. Hers alone.

The true Diva. The
only one really. Gospel’s
gift: The Queen of Soul.

Comments:
Thanks much. I really FELT this one.
