Loyalty, the hidden strength

A good person makes

Sometimes kindness is taken

As easiness to break

Our expectations slant higher

Than they ought

We demand recognition

For those who fought

Problems aren’t ignored,

But we aren’t brash like Gryffindor

We rise when wrong is shutting out right,

In darkness we always see a light

Are not the only smarts in this school

For Slytherin ambition climbs

To the top of “to do list” lines

While we work hard for what we want,

We don’t step on others to reach the top

Is a time of kindness, hard work, and loyalty,
