Speaking her dreams – v3

Asking a question, joining in conversation,
Conquering her reserve, her reticence,
A smile forming on her young face,
talking about her future, a promise,
what will surely come to pass…
 
Learning so much, so deeply,
Drawn, encouraged from her shell,
Her loved one’s coaxing, wooing her,
to share her aspirations, her goals,
speaking aloud her dreams of calling…
 
Finding her resolve, her focus,
Her purpose to do meaningful work,
A dream to change the world, hope,
to defeat the scourge of cancer,
this blight upon our lives…
