My Reflection

WriteBeLight

I look in the mirror,

I see a Lioness.

Integrity, honesty,

With strength to protect.

 

Productive and strong,

Helpful and kind.

She sleeps well at night,

Has peace of mind.

 

From her brave heart,

She speaks the truth.

Her upbringing then,

Today she continues.

 

Others near her,

They’ll not try to sway.

They’ve learned quite well,

It is best that way.

 

Unless they kindly ask,

For her point of view,

She will oblige.

Her roar is true.

 

She is as equal,

As others on Earth,

Bring unto the world,

Her will and her mirth.
