I AM <br />A woman of confidence, <br />Believing in myself. <br /> <br />I AM <br />A woman of courage, <br />Accepting any challenge. <br /> <br />I AM <br />A woman of strength, <br />Enduring life’s hardships. <br /> <br />I AM <br />A woman of spirit, <br />Defying life’s obstacles. <br /> <br />I AM <br />A woman of vision, <br />Knowing my destiny. <br /> <br />I AM <br />A woman of dignity, <br />Worthy of your respect. <br /> <br />I AM <br />The Black Woman, <br />A GIFT TO THE EARTH. <br /> <br />© 1996 Sylvia Larane Green<br /><br />Sylvia Larane Green<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gift-to-the-earth/
