Brave Belle Rosen
Mrs. Rosen, that was a brave thing to do.
You saved the preacher when he couldn’t get through.
While under water, you disregarded your own safety.
You pulled that heavy door off of him and he got free.
That was the most courageous thing without a doubt.
It was too bad that your heart gave out.
Everyone in the theater wanted you to survive.
Six, including your husband, managed to get out alive.
While the capsized ship managed to stay afloat,
the survivors got out through the bottom of the boat.
Inspired by the 1972 film “The Poseidon Adventure”
