The Battle

You run with every fiber of your being,
You dream with all of your heart.
You thirst for the knowledge you seek,
You fight for the ones you love.
You fly with the spectacular view from the heavens above, 
You love with all your soul. 
You jump into the spaces that make your family happy, 
You teach that all spectacular arrays of this world are ever so unique. 
You pass along to your family and friends all that is beautiful and what makes life so special to all of us.
You touch all who pass through your doors, 
And may the memory of all your work and excellence live on within and throughout  the community that you held so dear.
