She Will Rise
She
stands unbowed, both fierce and free,
A force as wild as the roaring sea.
Lightening might strike, thunder may call,
Yet she will rise and never fall.
Her
hands have shaped the morning light,
Turned darkened days to burning bright.
Through flames and ash, through dust and pain,
She walks unshaken in the rain.
They
built her chains, she broke them all,
She scaled the heights they swore she’d fall.
They tried to dim her shining grace,
But fire still dances on her face.
The
winds may howl, the rivers cry,
The stars may fade from the dreary sky,
But she endures, her spirit strong –
A warrior's heart, a victor’s song.
Through
nights of storm and days of trial,
She climbs beyond the world's denial.
Her voice reverberates, her will stands tall –
