Women
WOMEN
I hold..
The history of us
In the shadows of all..
We are one
In the years of struggle
No one knows our depth
But us
We multi task
We cry unseen tears
We laugh at ourselves
We love beyond reason
As our byways become
A challenge
We gather strengths
In the gentle sea breeze
We are Mothers
Regardless of what we choose..
Be it a child, pet, garden..
We carry a gene..
Caregivers
But unseen is the strengths
That grow from our falls of
Learning
We are warriors and just beginning
To show the world
The depth of our capabilities
So treasure us
As buds
Now in bloom
Flowing seeds of
Equality
