It was amazing.

As you sang your face changed

and years just dropped away.

When you walked

on stage you were    

the age you are,

the age we all are.

Then as you gave us

each classic song,

your voice so agile,

so clear, so strong,

your youth percolated
    
steadily back in.

If the program

hadn't ended

when it did

you might have

exited a teenager

or even toddled

out as a kid.
