~POLLYANNA~

And so she was romantic
with a love for all mankind
Her kindness and her manner
left her vulnerable and blind

to the cruelty of her captors
as she gave with no return
Her heart was ever giving
but her tears would often burn

She sowed the seeds of laughter
She warmed the lives of all
She never looked for payment
She never thought she'd fall

But Life holds out the promise
of better days ahead
and when the bleak of darkness
surrounded her sick bed

She opened up the curtain
to see beyond the pain
She prayed - for she was certain
That God would chase the rain

And though she lives on rainbows
and her future must be bright
She tucks away her sorrows
While she faces darkest night

For her Pollyanna pallor
will lift and soon display
The hope that she is dreaming
on this New and wondrous day
