Young girl, raise your voice
You are to be seen
We are to rejoice
Because of your being
You make this world brighter
Your smile like the sun’s ray
Born a fighter
Entering each new day
Young lady, raise your hand
You are to be heard
We are to rejoice
For all you have earned
You make this world clearer
By the works of your hand
The message you deliver
Taken with a firm stand
Woman, raise yourself
For all to see
You are no commodity
But a fellow human being
You bring life to us all
Nurture and care
To violate a life-giver
We should not dare
Woman, raise yourself
For all to see
Our mother
Our daughter
Our sister
Be free
Woman. Arise!

Such a beautiful and heat felt poem. Lovely and refreshing to read.
Wonderful poem! I think it is very important to get the message of women empowerment out there and this is a great vehicle for that!
Thank you!
What a beautiful post!! really enjoyed reading it!! women are really strong, but they need to believe in themselves! Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Women need education from an early age to learn their worth. I agree. Women are strong.
Love this. That is powerful and I think more things like this are important for girls to be able to read!
We definitely need to motivate our girls to know their worth.
I love this poem because it spreads such an important message about female empowerment.
Women are power! We always have to help each other, be there for each other and we girls have to stick together!
Yes! Imagine what we could achieve if we actually worked together and uplifted each other?
Really well written poem. We need to find the confidence to be ourselves and not let others suppress us.
Thanks Melanie.
I think finding confidence begins with teaching confidence. We should always be ourselves and be brave.
Beautiful! Thanks for this poeme for us women to be proud and take confidence of being a women. Its not a mans world we are living…its womens world but we dont have the confidence to take that role.
Women possess so much power. We need education more than anything. Confidence to be who we are.
Thank you for reading 🙂
