Letter To the Women

Letter to the women
By Michelle Morris

This is a letter to the women
For all those who need reminding
You are powerful beyond knowing
You are created from stars and light

You are key to our survival
You bring forth life from your own being 
You are mighty and fierce and beautiful
You are crowned by grace and peace 

Exalted and worshipped and loved
Betrayed and hunted and burned
Feared and adored and embraced
You are the home of our humanhood

Never forget your origins of boldness
All the proud women who came before
We are the future in the making 
For our children globally to love more

Never forget your strength and courage
You can do anything with determination and support
For imagine if we all stood together
How much better life would be here on Earth

So very very true. A better happier world for mankind to move us off our current track to extinction. Very well written.

Thank you, kindly, Peter. Humanity has a limited amount of time to work together. I try to stay hopeful. Blessings and best wishes. :-)
