She was a faithful volunteer at the nursing home, the piano she would play,
She believed she needed to give back to others in some way each and every day,
She said her folks had sacrificed so much for her to receive an education,
"Sometimes I wonder if they even had enough to eat", she would mention,
So she gave her time and talents in an unmeasured way,
Keeping time as time after time a piano program she would play,
Lives were bettered by her service and sincere dedication,
And hearts were touched and we applauded with many a standing ovation,
To think of all the good that was brought to be to others and to me,
Because she lived what she believed,
That giving back is both a privilege and a responsibility.
