Under the light of a broken church. A flourishing garden bathes in the rays. Tended to by a visage of beauty. She shines brighter than the sun. In the gutter of these slums. A flower still blooms. The scent of lilies follows her As she sweeps over the rubble, they call home She brings with her a magic Magic that is not for humans to behold Magic that can cure the most grievous of wounds Magic that can comfort the most broken She is a daughter and a friend A lover and a mother sometimes too She meets so many and loves them too But she is fleeting Like the flowers she tends Cherish her so and protect her well For the Flower of the Slums still blooms here
