A KINGDOM RAISED BY BONE

She was the unseen pillar within the wall, The one who caught the frame before the fall. She built a future with the things she gave away, A garden grown from what she didn't say. Her own map of wants was folded, put aside, A place where worry had nowhere to hide. When whispers came, she answered with such pride: "I stand taller, having conquered more Than those who only walk a supported shore. My wealth is solid, built on deeds alone, A kingdom raised by this lone, working bone." And we, her children, are the visible, clear proof, That one strong heart can raise a sturdy roof. Her effort is our grace, her grit our proof. May all the seeds she planted in the dark, Blossom at last and leave their joyful mark. May she stay long enough to watch them grow, And finally reap the harvest she did sow.
