The Queen
Her eyes can make the boldest man bow Her voice echoes around the world She takes on many roles A daughter, sister, lover, friend A deadly foe She wears short skirts or Tshirts Strutting around in high heels or sneakers Her laughter, fierce and free Inspires others and paves the way She rules through love The world is hers Her path is hers, bold and true She stands her ground, tall and firm She carries her throne She seizes the crown There's courage on the shoulder Where obedience used to be And it's calling her the queen Her nerve is her weapon And she IS the Queen (In class this morning, we were asked to write a poem about the modern woman. This is what I ended up with. Am I becoming a poet???)
