Six Pearls

One pearl for a lady with heart wide and loving

Who never denies an embrace

One pearl for the skill that the whole hall is toasting

Accomplishments gone without trace

One pearl like the moon lies eclipsed by her sunlight

Still warm even burdened with care

For one who would carry the needs of the people

One pearl for the strength of the bear

One pearl for the valor of one who steps forward

When all other feel it's too much

To show by example what it means to be noble

One pearl for her labours of love.
