Her heart is dominant
She irradiates care and concern
A passion righteous and militant
In plenitude it burns
A believer in community
She plots to draw people together
Everybody’s best interests
Are at the heart of her endeavor
She represents the best qualities
That people are generally given
By compassion, kindness and humility
She is first and foremost driven
When one day she’s cruelly taken
I cry and hang my head
For a moment it feels like hope is gone
And like all that’s good in the world is dead
But love won, it conquers all
With tragedy it multiplies
Our world could not fail to be touched
By a heart so strong, and of that size
She implored we have more in common
Than all that which divides us
It’s a philosophy we ought to keep
At heart, and anchor deep inside us
Now she’s gone the world has been robbed
Of its champion, its truest pal
But wherever community triumphs
There her spirit will dwell
