Violet
Streaks of earth matted in her hairBeaten down, but she won't scareBlinks her eyes, battered green and blueIgnorance can leave an awful bruiseSo get up!Get up!Come on and get up, Violet!Blade of grass in her aching fistSets her jaw, no she won't quitShe'll take the fight to streets and avenuesA little dirt can make a flower bloom From Letras Mania
