SINGING HIS PRAISES

This weekend our challenge is to write a poem or story
in exactly 95 words incorporating the word โ€œoperaโ€.
 Please see the challenge link below the video.

About 20 years ago I discovered my son David could sing. He had been out at a karaoke bar and I heard he โ€œblew the roof off the placeโ€ singing an Iron Maiden song.  

Well, that was enough for me. When I heard him sing I was stunned. I convinced him to join me in our church choir. He soon became lead tenor and joined several opera companies.  

Since COVID, David has not performed. You can be sure once heโ€™s back on stage his dad and I will be right there in the front row.

NB โ€“ David is The Wandering Minstrel. This is the entire operetta starting at David’s entrance point. Please do not feel compelled to watch the entire show; however, if you do, I hope you enjoy the renaissance version of Il Mikado!
