My Sistas


To my sistas with style and grace more than just that beautiful face....

Walk head high, fierce and proud.
We need not be passive with our head in the cloud.

We can have strength, be vulnerable too.
Intelligence illuminates within you.

Why transform or be other than who you are?
I implore you, shine bright like a rare cosmic star.

There is only one you, you yourself are unique.
When transformed into someone else then you become the freak.

Live life proud, you beautiful soul,
To be true to yourself should be your goal.

All else will follow, success and love.
Give it to the hands of He above.

I believe in you my mother, daughter, sister and friend.
The worlds at your finger tips, let your breath be the wind.

Strive for greatness, that’s you by far.
Don’t settle to be an object, prize like a car.

We were meant not to be the object of anyone’s obsession.
But cherished with respect, love and affection.
 
So my sistas.... I say this to thee. Don’t settle for less, set yourself free!

Author's Note
Women are often made to settle or become muffled impressions of what they can really be. Sometimes made to hold back, or kept from being forward because that’s seen as a negative instead of going for what you want or believe in. This is for those women who have been encouraged to be less than what and who they are, or want to be....feel free to be yourself.
