Inner Shine


Plain as week old cornbread she was.

Would have missed her altogether if she hadn’t been so dang homely.

Ain’t no accountin’ for it!

Her momma was a beauty queen but Joseph-Gee-Hosifat you’d never know it by lookin’ at her girl child!

Then in church one Sunday mornin’ she step a-front the congregation all fidgety and squirmin’ and belted out a hymn with the voice of an Angel.

Nearly knocked ‘em off their pews!

 No one noticed her outside looks so much after that.
