Rose From the Ranks

R-ose from the ranks, O-vertook as the night fell; S-uccess you did achieve, A-ttaining a higher level. L-ow position you once held I-s elevated to the next; N-ew function you fulfill, D-ivine duty that you A-nnex. C-limbed the tree of triumph A-scending in ecstasy; L-ife's destiny is written, E-nding up in victory. R-ose from the ranks, took every step to improve; A-dvanced through the grades, accelerating your move. B-oosted and highly headed I-nto another promotion; N-ever ever did you boast, U-nder the break of dawn. Y-es, on sixteenth September she remains in member's phalanx; A-ccept the well versed woman who rose from the ranks.
