Mary Seacole Saves the Day

by Chloe Butler aged 10

Mary, Mary, Mary
Managing all the mangled men
lying there day after day
thinking what will happen
Mary did not give up
she did not stop
because she loved
everybody the same

Mary, Mary, Mary
must have been scary
looking at all the injured men
she did not see
everyone wanted her to be
the queen bee

Mary, Mary, Mary
what did happen
how it has turned out
I now know about you
I want others to know you too
