The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth

(8/10/12)

The bible says the meek shall inherit the earth
And I believe this to be true.
Just look at all- that these woman can do.

They was always the backbone of man
And they knew that thru their strength
That man would understand.

Behind every famous man , a woman was
Always there- and with them
their fame they would share.

Then slowly through out the centuries
They started to claim their rights
And for their freedom - they would
Gladly stand and fight.

So many famous women that are in
The annexes of history and that is
the way -“that it was meant to be.”

Now we’re in the 21st century
And they have gotten so much to date
They are in every job field
Although a little late.

They saw their dreams and set their goals
And it mattered not if they was young or old
Dreams can be achieved by anyone you see
But it took the women, to see the reality.

They are the meek that I speak of
Who became the shadow of man
But when the sun is behind us
Then you’ll understand.

The shadow is now in front of us
Leading the way, because this is 
A new era , and the start of a brand new day.
