A graceful unassuming woman of dignity and grace,
Unruffled by the cares of life, content to hold her place.
She shares a tender smile with everyone she meets,
Never an unkindly thought stains the words she speaks.
Her grace is slightly hidden and yet, is plainly seen,
Everyone can feel it, but few can really see.
She touches many people because she just is there,
Like the fragrance of a flower drifting on the air.
If she were free to speak to you who listen here,
She would say: "Life is good. You have no need to fear!"
And we would all believe her, she always speaks the truth,
Filled with hope and courage to the aged and the youth.
