STRONG WOMAN

 Woman,
Arise; hold your head up high
Look to the sky
For martyrs and Kings
Holds you in high Esteem
That’s why,
You should be treated like a Queen.

Woman,
Be Proud...
Be Proud of who you are
Show grace as you walk
Show manners as you talk
Be recognise wherever you go
Strong woman...
The world will know

Woman,
Be strong, Be Proud
Don’t give in to abuse
Don’t be treated with disrespect
You are an inspiration.
Woman spread your wings.

For in this world
You are an equal achiever
Sitting amongst educators, inventors
Entrepreneurs and political world leaders
This is the time to stand
The time to be proud of who you are
Don’t go astray
This is your time.......
This is International Women’s Day.
