Today she walks the path of school
A neophyte of lore,
To leave her carefree childhood days
Behind home's sheltered door. Down the long laborious road
She starts with apprehension,
New things hither-to unknown
Will multiply the tension. Somehow like falling autumn leaves
A sadness seems to reign,
Within the silent walls of home
That likens grief and pain. Another live evolves today
In search of erudition,
All things imbibed along the way
Will mold her future mission. |
