Merry and jolly though one may seem,
Laughter resounding in its fullest beam.
No sign of pain or a drop of tear,
Courageous fighters without any fear.
Deep down a secret place exists,
Truth withheld, never to express.
Searches a soul to wholly trust,
That dares to break this outer crust.
Facing each day with the broadest smile,
No matter how great the battle or trial.
Silently, reasoning with God each day,
To be our guide through this narrow way.
