Whitney Houston


Whitney Houston.



Nineteen sixty three her birth

middle class for what it's worth.

Father ex military, theatrical manager

useful guide, budding entrepreneur.



New Jersey her childhood scene

a fashion model aged seventeen.

Her looks and girl next door manner

quickly made a valuable young signer.



World wide recording contract with Arista

stopped her trot as a singing drifter.

Whitney Houston her debut album

Rolling Stone raved, more to come!



Totalling seven number one hits

this lady no showbiz glitz.

Beating The Beatles and bee gees

Whitney the show biz bees knees.



Her end was rather pitiful

I thought at the time inexplicable.

Maybe she had loved Bobby Brown

and had a nervous breakdown.
