Tribute To A Mother
Poet: Louisa May Alcott
Faith that withstood the shocks of toil and time;
Hope that defied despair;
Patience that conquered care;
And loyalty, whose courage was sublime;
The great deep heart that was a home for all -
Just, eloquent, and strong
In protest against wrong;
Wide charity, that knew no sin, no fail;
The Spartan spirit that made life so grand,
Mating poor daily needs
With high, heroic deeds,
That wrested happiness from Fate's hard hand.
