American Torch

In the history of first ladies
 I never envisioned the strength and power of women that carried a torch of greatness for which they stood.  
From Eleanor Roosevelt to Jackie Kennedy…just to name a few… were the embodiment of beauty, knowledge, class, and pure sophistication…. the main denominators in constructing the reins and heart of sisterhood. 
For
This is a pool of women who are classified as educators, administrators and negotiators who opened the doors and paved a way in setting the stage to a range of accomplishments that are now the stepping stones of the common good.  
 And as time went by
 The torch was passed down to another woman of caliber…
 A woman who
  Found her mate and transformed herself into a mother
 Our first lady; the epitome of a leader and scholar; 
A true Victorian of woman’s empowerment;
 The trendsetter of new beginnings …
 A go getter and heavy hitter…all awhile continuing to be a woman that’s still down to earth… and yet, still found the time to implant morals and values of a woman’s worth… to the new generation and all that this brings. 
Thus her wings continued to spread!
Comma, comma, comma… 
For
 This treasure of  grace is best known as the worlds
 Phenomenon and First Lady… Michelle Obama…. Our American Torch

THE END…
