The Woman With Chestnut Brown Eyes Poem by Francis Duggan

Her shoulder length wavy hair dark as the wing of a raven one down to earth charming and wise
With a smile for to match her great beauty the woman with chestnut brown eyes
A tall young slim woman of striking beauty of her physical assets she does not seem aware
One can say nowadays her sort of person to say the least is very rare
A religious and spiritual person to her higher self she is true
She believes if she does lead a good life that good things will become her due
A nurse back home from a Third World Country where she helps the homeless and unwell
She knows of the suffering they do go through those who live in an Earthly Hell
One who does live a pure existence to helping the poorest she devotes her life
She is one who does not have a lover she may never be any man's wife
If everyone were only like her we may not have human poverty
We would not have homeless people and people dying of hunger and a much better World it would be
She is home from a Third World Country but only home for a brief stay
An unsung heroine and a great person her type rare in the World of today.
