Check out this wonderful collection by Todd Owyoung who shot Jill’s concert at The Fox Theatre on March 26, 2008. Enjoy these really good photos and visit his blog to see his collection of photographs.
This is the first poem for our Monday’s Moods online poetry weekly showcase. Today we kick it off to celebrate National Poetry Month and we are proud to present a poem from our Moods Forum. Enjoy and give the author some love… or whatever you feel.
Big brown eyes….you LIED.
Said I was your only woman…not your “BIT ON THE SIDE”
Your future, your wife, your lover, your LIFE
Truth is apparently your life was in fact a DOUBLE LIFE.
Big brown eyes….you LIED.
Promised you I was “DOWN TO RIDE.
Your other life, future, wife, lover
with her you made our two children a BROTHER.
Still I remain blinded by your LIES,
Binded by your TIES,
HOLDING on TIGHT,
FOOLED by the highs….
Big brown eyes,
I’m saying my goodbyes,
Walking away,
While I still have my PRIDE.
You can lie,
You can cry,
You can shout,
You can ask WHY?!
Just look in the mirror, into those LIES!
For those of you that want to get ready for Jill Scott’s portrayal as Precious Ramotswe on HBO, we highly recommend reading the book No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency. You can purchase the books online for only $10.. and it’s apparently an easy read… but should be an exciting way to compare the actual role Jill plays vs. the book.
Next Monday, Hidden Beach will be proudly celebrating National Poetry Month by kicking off “Monday’s Moods.”
“Monday’s Moods.” will be a weekly featured poem that fans have submitted to the Family Reunion. Every week a poem will be selected and brought forward to JillScott.com and HiddenBeach.com for all to enjoy for their Monday.
If you would like to contribute a poem you must join the Family Reunion and post your poem in the “Moods” forum. All entries will be considered and proper credit will be given to the authors of the poem (provided by the author).
Happy National Poetry Month, have a great weekend and we will see you on Monday for our first “Monday’s Moods.”

She Said:
Just wanted to share this pic, it was taken in Glasgow, UK last November. We travelled 200 miles to see you that night and you were awesome, we saw you the next night in Manchester and it was even better!
It was so sweet of you to come down to the crowd and say hi to everyone afterwards, was a real pleasure to get my photo taken with you and a very nice end to the evening. Hope your not going to leave it too long before you come and see us again in the UK. Come to Leeds and do a 21-night special like Prince next time, we will be front row every time!
Take care,
Melanie & Miles
