'She Would...


'She would rather light candles
than curse the darkness.
and her glow has warmed the world'

So said Adlai Stevenson
praising Eleanor Roosevelt

In darkness hides the evil ways
The devil taunts
and makes you stray

She lit her candle
and realized her faith
Fought for civil rights
and the human race
In a world still clinging to ignorance.
