Standing tall

She is beauty and grace
As she floats through life
Like a leaf blowing in the breeze
in the fall
Or a flower blooming
in the spring
Through the joys and sorrows of life she remains standing tall
She is strength and forgiveness
as her first love walks away
and her heart shatters
like ice
She's broken but mending
As she picks herself up
she meets someone new
who helps her and loves her
and she says I do
She's beauty and grace
Strength and forgiveness
Broken and whole
A jumbled up cacophony of human emotion and traits
But she remains standing tall
Because what is life and love
Without the risk of falling
