Joni the Lioness

Entrepreneur. Friend. And wife.
She’s unafraid to tackle life.
A trailblazer and lioness.
Finding poise 'neath life’s duress.
Scaling the rocks that line her way
Like that of the Chesapeake Bay.
Facing the crude mountainous wild
Strong in that she is 'God’s child.'
Pealing mid life’s boisterous winds
Refusing to quit, bow, or bend.
Truly she is the gilded chimes
Sweetly singing thro’ life and times.

Joni's a faithful lioness,
Whom God has been pleased to bless.
