She Planted Arbors

              She wrote of the fields she walked
                  the lakes she traversed
               Her stick in one hand 
                  her pen in her purse 

               Wherever none existed
                  she planted arbors
                Revered by all, known by none
                  ~ ‘til she was called back to harbor

Pardon my ignorance, for I do not recall who you are specifically speaking of, but the message is clear. Care not what the world will remember or forget...do good wherever you are and circumstance will allow. Have positive passion. We only need execute what love dictates to one's heart...God will take care of the bigger picture in His time.
