Sisters by Micki Findlay

 



SISTERS

  

in a culture of lies, let us speak our truth

clearly, loudly, boldly

 

in this time of unrest, offer words of comfort

humbly, gently, compassionately

 

in an era of fear, share our courage

with knees knocking and hearts pounding

 

under the threat of dominance

break free from the shackles and take back our wings

 

in the blight of misogyny

remind each other of our profound worth

and our divine contribution to Mother Earth

 

instead of hate, look for common ground

assume the best, while staying true to our best selves

 

we will rise up from tyrannical power

by reminding one another of our strength

 

Sisters

 

we are strong alone

 

but together

 

Unstoppable
