CELEBRATE THE POWER OF WOMEN

Celebrating power of the women today,
Without any doubt a winner all the way,
Her passion for life, the will to survive,
Makes her strong, secure and wise!

She understands what it is to compete,
And knows when to take a backseat,
Pushing back to be silent, not to cry,
Being gentle and accepting defeat!

Life is about overcoming adversity,
Rising from the ashes like the phoenix,
With compassion and patience,
She wins the hearts with her dedication!

She can climb mountains, trek for days,
Travel around with confidence and grace,
She can move mountains, purr like a cat
with her children, that set her apart!

Life is not easy for a gentle woman,
To sail in the life boat without a frown,
Win over the people who pushed her down,
In the heady rat race to win the crown!


CREATIVITY EMPOWERS WOMEN

She feels proud of what she is today,
In all the decisions which she takes,
Sometimes with tears in her eyes,
But with a smile and her pride,
All the choices that she makes,
Works favourably every time!

The patience she has trying to decide,
The own path she wants to take,
Without hurting anyone by her side,
The pain in her eyes, the woman in her,
They were unable to understand or see,
Her hope for achieving gender equality!

It is easy to grumble and complain,
Make every one notice she is in pain,
But she loves the beauty in life,
And wants peace and not strife,
When she inspires, creates new solutions,
To innovate for the future of women!


ESSENCE OF BEING A WOMAN

She is a mother, a sister, a daughter,
 A Teacher, a CEO or a Doctor,
Whatever the role, it does not matter,
She can make a home, lead a team.

God made women, with a heart so deep,
Murmurs like a stream, gushes like the sea.
Hands that comfort, and her hugs give warmth,
When writhing in pain, her words give solace.

With eyes so deep, she can touch your soul.
No one can love the way she does,
Straight from her heart she cares and loves,
With feelings and pain shows her strength.

She seeks no revenge or any vengeance
Her heart generous, plays roles with finesse,
Has the power to nurture, create and change.
And build a world, beautiful and sane.

Compassion, intuition and tolerance,
Courage, strength and confidence,
To speak your mind, follow your passion,
And be savvy and independent,
Makes her a woman of the present!
