she is.. Owning Her Shadow

It Is Her Time

She Is Our Future

SHE IS … Our Future

What shall I leave behind for the future?
What shall I leave in the past?
I cannot go forth with this heavy a burden
I need to let go and restart

Who will I leave in my scrapbook of memories?
And take only the joy and the smiles
For I cannot hold on to a host of emotions
That do nothing to fill up my heart

What can I gather to tend my new garden?
What seeds shall I plant and enjoy ?
For this knapsack I’m given to carry me forward
Needs only that that I need to employ

I need not carry burdens nor past imperfections
Nor shame and not envy nor greed
The lightest parts that share my passions and pleasures and help those that really me need

For that I must ensure my discipline focused
New routines and habits are formed
Stick to my plans with consistent tenacity
Until embodied my new ways are norm

I plant not a seed that will show me a blossom
Nor a canopy where I feel shade
I only take comfort from the trust that my life’s work Is for others and legacy made

She Chooses Her Destiny

She Is The Solution

She Is The Solution

It is time for the women world over to be
The solution this planet so desperately needs
Especially for those who are hearing the call
To be more, to give more, to love life and have all

For women like you are far more likely to see
More similar traits than differences be
Between those who feel conflict, war, anger, and fear
They can understand, empathise, listen and hear

They can step into the shoes of those mothers who strive
To feed, clothe and house those who fear for their lives
Their innermost plea is for comfort and peace
And now willing to fight for all conflict to cease

By fight, they mean conquer with words and compassion
Encourage girls over the world to be warrior fashioned

With strength their new mantle
Self-confidence their style
No longer their bodies
Worth more than their minds

You’ll find them in board rooms
You’ll find them at home
You’ll find that their making
Purpose lives of their own

Each one of them worthy
Each one of them kind
Each one tackling causes
Solutions to find

She Has A Goal

She Straightens Her Crown

She Straightens Her Crown

Queens cannot wait
Any longer
Any more
The time to rise is now

As unready as she is
She must be strong
Brave, invincible
For it is her time

She is nervous
Scared and shaky
But she knows that if she does nothing
Then she will fall through the cracks
And disappear, never sharing her gifts
And she cannot live with that

Her life has meaning
Her sisters lives have meaning
Together they can rewrite history
They can make the world a better place

As she sits with her message that she wants to share
Her hands shake
Does anyone want hold her hand?
Or will she be alone on her quest?

She does not know
And realises that if she does not ask
She will never know

And her gifts will be lost
She believes that there is a golden thread
Weaving through the hearts of women
Around the globe
The hearts that are aching
With gifts of love and kindness

Heaving and ready to be born
Into reality
To create a legacy
Of abundance, warmth, compassion and empathy

Individually they rise, adorned with crowns of hope and confidence
These queens know that they were born for this moment

Together, they will show others a new way

And so they join hands
Shaking, their rebellion palpable
They will
Teach others
Self-love
Healing
Empowerment
And a new era of leadership

So she straightens her crown
And gets to work
For She Is Our Future
