Endurance, quiet Determination
And an abundance of love -
Which weighs all odds.
Through pain and near-dispair,
She has a hopeful heart,
Lifting spirits all around.
Warms the hearts of the desolate,
Very old, very young and those facing
Unknown terrors.
The Flame that keeps burning
No accolades, only Respect,
Awe and Gratitude
This Flame of love.
