Her Hiden Beauty
Her Hidden Beauty
She was such a lonely child but not by choice,
She had no reason to smile, no reason to rejoice.
She would stutter when she talked, and the other children would laugh,
Seemed none of the other children would stand up for her on her behalf.
She dreaded each day that she went to school,
The kids never stopped their teasing, life was so cruel.
But she never quit, though the going was tough,
She just wished somebody would tell the other kids enough was enough.
But her beauty was such that it out shined the problem she had.
God always gives you something good along with the bad.
And she would always pray, not for a cure,
But to give her strength, so she could endure.
All through the years she maintained grades of straight A’s,
And now it was time for graduation in a few short days.
As Valedictorian a speech was required,
And a beauty she was, one which God had inspired.
As she stood before the crowd, with her speech in her hand,
She started to read with a voice so beautiful and in perfect command.
Not one hesitation, a masterpiece she spoke that day,
And her final words were “I Love You All and That is all I have to say!
