//Note- I’ve tried a new style down here.. lots of symbolism. Positive criticism whole heartedly accepted 🙂 //

Don’t worry mother, you’ve given birth to a Soldier,

who fights on the endless battleground that is life,

the voices of those trying to put her down are battle sounds

that never recede like the tide

Don’t worry mother, you’ve given birth to a Hero,

who sticks by what she feels is right,

She brings in the light, expunges the dark,

and fights for the weak with all her might

Don’t worry mother, you’ve given birth to a Leader

who is unafraid to pave her own way,

treading the path that is oft untrodden,

ignoring what all the nay sayers have to say

Don’t worry mother, you’ve given birth to a free bird,

Who’s unafraid of the battering gust,

Her wings spread out, ever soaring high,

Exploring new horizons, if she must

Don’t worry mother, for you’ve instilled in your daughter,

great values, making her a strong independent girl,

Who will make mistakes, but learn from them,

Thus letting her true colours unfurl
