“I Am Woman”
Here I stand whole and complete in majestic beauty
with Grace and Mercy about my loins and feet!
I am gentle as a breeze blowing through the trees;
A pillar of strength in times of difficulty and adversity!
A well of emotions and passions are suckled from my breasts
while the tears I shed for my children flow like a river toward heaven to be blessed and kept!
The future of humanity is birthed within me! For this I was created
and forever will be, a companion, a helpmate and equal in equality!
I am strong-minded and soft-hearted; I have an attitude of positivity,
and a character marked with wisdom and a level of high integrity too!
I Am Deserving of Respect and I Command Dignity!
I Am Woman! I Am Woman! I Am Woman!
