The following is a poem on women's empowerment :
A newborn baby smiles, Gazing at her mother, With playful eyes, So innocent, So young, The world is hers for the taking, A little girl laughs, Alone in a silent playground, Her eyes closed, Pigtails whipping through the wind , Without a care, The world is hers for the taking, A young lady cries, Tiptoeing to the edge of the cliff, She has a choice, Irreversible, But she won't because, The world is hers for the taking, A middle-aged woman reads, To a classroom of eager faces, Staring expectantly at her, She prepares to share with, Each and everyone, The ultimate power, Knowledge, The world is hers for the taking, A grandmother speaks, Telling her story, To all who wish to hear, She has lived many lives, And in each one she has known, The world is hers for the taking, All these women, Their power, Their ideas, Their stories, The world, Tries to reduce them, To less than their worth, But fails, Because the world, Has always been, And will always be, Theirs for the taking
