The Lioness The air is chilled and thin The daunt shadows muster in The hidden history so bleak Often held close by the meek One rises to the task at hand To tackle the cruelness of man To right the wrongs for those Who haven't the means to do so. Strengths gathered from fears Valiance comes forth from tears Cleanse the dastardly hold of those who acted so cold. A Champion for the tormented A saviour who has lamented A warrior woman so brave Her family she had to save. Loving caring and filled with kindness Protecting her pride like a lioness Be gone , Be gone you evil foes And that is how the story goes. You have held the pride together And they will not ever wander The strength of you and your kindness Forever they are protected by the lioness. visit Tara Simms at: www.geocities.com/Paris/Musee/9954/ [This message has been edited by startin_fresh (edited 09-22-1999).] |

LOL, thanks for the advertising! You already know how much I like this one. As a mother, I like to think of myself as a fierce lioness, protecting my cubs. Great analogy! ------------------ Work like you don't need the money, love like it's never going to hurt, dance like nobody's watching. |
