……..To All Women

The gems pale in the beauty of your wonders

The sky is blue only because you bloom

The stars dazzle in the skies at night but you dazzle our lives because you are our stars

You defy understanding but you define our standings

You are most unsung but you are really our only song

Your strength and humanity sustain our universe

Your love sustains life

Your blood purifies life

Your sacrifice is our essence

Through thick and thin you are ever so true

In life most difficult moments you are really our rock

We claim to be strong but we know we are wrong

For in you we find our strength

You are our hero and we say thank you
