Hope From The Streets.............

A standing ovation and tears of joy
A passionate heart from no more than a boy
A golden voice delivered from deep
Inspiration awakened from it's sleep
Life's been tough but that's ok
It's led him to where he stands today
And not far away his family wait
Anticipating the direction of his fate
For now he gets a chance to say
Who will help him along his way
But it won't matter all that much
Either judge can help him out as such
For his spirit is steeped in history
And music is the blood of his identity
But it's his soul that shines right on through
Gracefully are the words delivered to you..........

About this poem:
A lad from the streets of Auckland now living in Melbourne............Looking for a way to help support his family left one judge speechless with tears in her eyes...............Her only comment " You were born to do this ".........He learnt the piano in three months self taught No U Tube to deliver this song..........absolutely amazing
