Rondeau: I Am Woman

I am Woman with mindset of steel:
forging wheels on the line in a foundry;
breaking ceilings of glass with no boundaries
in the corporate world making deals.

Treating patients so that they may heal;
teaching students with vigor and zeal;
gaining knowledge both complex and sundry;
I am Woman.

Always humble at heart to reveal
to the ones that I love what I feel;
domesticity roles, doing laundry,
solving problems when we’re in a quandary,
giving thanks for each day that’s been sealed.
I am Woman.

 

Thank you, my Wonderful Shari!
