A Rare Gem
She has enormous fortitude
Charm and resilience!
That’s what caught my attention.
She never fails to say “Hello”
And she exuberates a happy disposition.
She opens the door to her heart
And welcomes you
She lets you in with such gusto
And shares her life
Like an open book, this is so rare!
So many scars she has borne
Each tells a tale of woe!
But she bears no grudge
No remorse against life’s
Trust and turns, each episode
Has given her a sharpened
Vision, to live, learn and let go!
Nature is her sanctuary and refuge.
In pain and in sorrow
She turns to nature for healing
She prunes, plants and plans
A garden so colourful and gay
Amazing results she enjoys!
“Live I must,” she declares
“What can be gained
By anger, vengeance and contrition?”
SHE has vision of such magnanimity!
She is a rare gem!
