Women: Beauty and Grace







Women, strong and brave,

With hearts that love and souls that crave,

To live, to learn, to make a change,

In this world that can be so strange.

You are beauty, you are grace,

A light that shines in every place,

You have the power to inspire,

To lift others up and take them higher.

So hold your head up high and proud,

And speak your truth, say it loud,

For you are a force to be reckoned with,

A woman, fierce and limitless.
