Ode to the daughter of the East



From a daughter rose she to the leaders role
A vision carried forth; afforded to the masses
Fearless in the wake of a rising storm
She rode each tide with graceful form

Traversing glory; fervor amidst the masses
Bellowed a voice that resonated between borders
Swaying the winds of change she progressed
Carrying a message, questions to be addressed

Exiting swiftly before time’s natural demise
Ripples a tide that has swept our corridors
Her presence departed; existence giving way
Remain the ideals, a legacy; the message will still play

Rest In Peace!
