Virtuous Women

Women* in my family are God’s gifts indeed Exemplifying their roles by their deed and creed. Caring Mother showcases blest homemaker’s zest Her partnership with Dad makes family’s love nest. Sweet Sisters continue to share legacy well Marked with conscientiousness wherein they do excel. Strong Grandmoms’ industrious bearing still prevails Through their brood’s hardworking trademark that never fails. Dear Aunts are vouched with testimonies of kindness By neighbours that have witnessed their genuine goodness. Lady cousins remain steadfast public servants Fulfilling assigned tasks as ministerial grants. Daughters and nieces while in the Lord’s grace, flourish Keep on being nourished from truths they must cherish.
*Proverbs 30:31 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. June 28, 2022 2nd place, "Women in my family" Poetry Writing Contest Sponsored by Sotto Poet; judged on 7/12/2022.
