Giving
In giving of what you freely gave
The martyred heart rejoiced,
Trailing ribbons blue, there flew
The nightingales, silver voiced.
Selfless gift of selfless self,
Resultant smiles expound
The wealth of days and better ways
To gather love around.
Telling of what there was to tell,
With words that gathered near
The tenderness and happiness
We hold forever dear.
Giving of treasure spiced with life,
The priceless time and schemes,
We so respect you architects,
Creators of love and dreams.
