Proverbs 31:25 NIV

She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.

She hasn’t lost

Her smile

Or her Faith

Despite the things

Life has thrown at her,

Loss and pain

Will not define her.

~~~

If you listen closely

You might just

Learn a thing or two

From the stories

She tells

The pain she has

Endured

But the smile

She’s never let

That go!

~~~

There’s strength

In the stories told

And the ones untold

Get to know her

And you’ll see there’s

Strength behind the

Pain

Faith behind

The smile.
