Unsung Hero Audrey

Unsung Hero Audrey Audrey Hepburn, not just another pretty face Eloquent little girl, fragile beauty, boundless grace Danced upon the stage and world A young star started out with humble voice and noble causes Accomplished ballerina making money on her early path And running messages deep within the Dutch Resistance WWII was no simple feat for Audrey and her selfless acts If caught in both activities it meant an instant death By those in opposition to her quest But she prevailed. All that has passed And she remained with us as blessed The Hepburn Children’s Fund for fighting hunger And UNICEF continue with her aid, at her bequest Though she is gone, no longer with us Her causes continue on with energy and spirit The world still sings her song Our hero, we love you Audrey, unsung little one We sing your praises Rest in peace sweet princess Created 7/31/14 for - Unsung Hero contest
