I dedicate this poem to every woman known and unknown to me. I salute you!

THE STRENGTH OF A WOMAN

It’s not about the way she looks or the way she does her hair

It’s about her life, her struggling. The things she’s not too fond to share.

Just because she’s smiling and won’t let the world get her down

Doesn’t mean she’s not hurting and cries herself to sleep when no one’s around

We might seem all over the place but our feet are firmly planted on the ground!

That’s the strength of a woman, something I’d like to share

We are strong! We are courageous! We are beautiful!

No matter what, No matter where!

We hold our head up high even though the world is on our shoulders!

We smile just to Thank God for another day

We act out of love and share our problems with our sisters

We do not allow the bad times to lead us astray.

The strength of a woman is everlasting, like the comfort of God’s love

It is tested daily but a Woman’s faith knows she’ll get the strength from above…

I AM WOMAN
