International Women`s Day

we as women are strong
and yet we`re tender
we can be determined
as well as yielding
we love to be outgoing
and yet cuddle up on the sofa
power dress for an event
or slouch in Pjs and slippers
we are not slaves to be used
but women of many talents
able to juggle life's chores
and yet be loving and kind
so don`t underestimate us 
but rejoice with us for who we are!
