There was a girl named Melody
Who couldn’t hold a tune
Lessons practice trying hard
Loud belt or quiet croon
Her mother father sister sang
Quite beautifully it seemed
As if she wasn’t meant to be
In this family so esteemed
One day her family harmonized
Miss Melody deferred
She sat and doodled on a sheet
The tableau which she observed
Unthinkingly the scene she sketched
Was so accurate a portrayal
She was celebrated from that day
The praise couldn’t be curtailed
Melody became confident
In this gift she had to share
A talent lies in each of us
We must find which one is there
