BEAUTIFUL
my parents have taught me well
to survive when they are dead and gone
and now that they are I must live my life
in a way that would make them proud of me
whatever work- I give it my all
I try to live in the moment and enjoy living
for I am on this earth but for a short time
the grave waits whispering my name
the teachings of the nuns still heard
and I am proud of that each day
the teachings of God drilled into me
giving me tranquility, kindness, and humility
I have a gentle spirit and use my wisdom
and knowledge well
