Listen to poem:
Modesty is the graceful, calm virtue of maturity; bashfulness the charm of vivacious youth: Quote by Mary Wollstonecraft
______________________________________________________________
In a world of modesty and grace, We find our unique space, Where calmness and virtue reside, And vivacious souls cannot be denied. Bashfulness—a trait so dear, Adds to the charm without fear. Of vivacious youth, so bright and bold, A beauty that never grows old. Without books, we would not have known, The knowledge that has truly shown That in this world, so vast and wide, A vivacious reader finds their stride. With words and tales that mesmerize, They journey through the lows and highs. Immersed in stories—they explore The depths of wisdom, to their core. But let us not forget, my friend, That vivacity has no gender trend. Women, too, can be vivacious. Allowing endless expression, gracious, With gestures and faces that speak, A language of passion—strong and unique. While men ought to be unyielding. Women openly put up their chins wielding. She dreams of dimples, yet understands, That life's charm lies in its demands To love, to hate, to feel it all, To let emotions rise and fall. For it is through our modesty, And graceful ways that we can foresee, The beauty in every passing day As maturity guides our way. So let us embrace our bashfulness. And cherish the charm of vivaciousness. For in these traits, we find our worth. And the essence of a life well lived on Earth.
