The Eagle wings and not Chicken feet of a woman

THE EAGLE WINGS AND NOT CHICKEN FEET OF A WOMAN

Woman, you have been given eagle wings and not chicken feet..To be a high flier,  to rise, soar and reach greater heights.

The eagle has no fear of adversity.

They have a fearless spirit of a conqueror

Stand for who you are, woman

If not, you will fall for anything

Woman, there's an eagle in you that wants to soar.

Don't quack like a duck

Soar like that eagle

Make your voice heard And your presence felt

Fearlessly, stand for change

Stand for peace

Stand for fairness

Make a difference in the world

Touch lives

And inspire nations

Believe you can, and you are half way there

Woman, sacrifice your today so that your children can have a better tomorrow

Heavy hearts, like heavy clouds in the sky,are best relieved by the letting of a little water.

So cry when the need may be, woman

Your tears are not your weakness

Neither does it demonstrate your weakness

Let your cry be a cry for peace

A cry for justice and fairness

A cry for positive change

The rose and the thorn, and the sorrow and gladness are linked together.

So persevere when the going gets tough

Water the thorns because of the roses

And soon the beautiful rose flower

Will blossom your success and victory

You have eagles wings and not chicken feet

Rise, soar and bring out the strength of womanhood in you

Yes you can!!
