Oh Nora Holt, a pioneer bold,
In Chicago's music scene, her story told,
A trailblazer in classical art,
With rhythm and soul that set her apart.

In the company of Josephine Baker she shone,
Her melodies, like jewels, beautifully sown,
From Chicago to Paris, her voice did soar,
A blues singer in nightclubs, forevermore.

In the echoes of jazz and classical rhyme,
Nora Holt danced through the sands of time,
Her legacy, a melody sweet and true,
A trailblazer in music, forever anew.
