DEDICATION: To all the women that beat all odds in this man’s world to collaborate, compete, and achieve. To that girl who didn’t rely on her outward appearance, but searched within and found that esteemed, challenging spirit to dare and overcome. To every beautiful woman with a purpose. To that virtuous and independent woman.
History, with its crafty ways and facts will record this day
The day we paused our gazes in disbelief to believe reality
The day that the click of your heels kept us in long mesmerizing spells;
The twists of your waist, and the boldness of your steps were the true meaning of elegance
The day that the wave of your hands, ceaseless smiles, and glow of your face were unmatched
At the border of perfection, that’s beauty with excellence
With the shield of faith and diligence, you’ve conquered all
From the bed of truth, your words left us in awe
Here being the birthplace of competition, your endowments stand out
With the helmet of virtue and conviction, victory was no doubt
In all honesty, you’re a picture of beauty and excellence
Go out like a merchant ship and reform lives for praiseworthy services
Go out with the fruit of your hands let the universe behold the results of persistency
Go out as the Lioness of this Pride to defend and provide green fame
Go out and plant joy in the hearts of the encountered, and let the wind announce your name
Looking in the mirror of accomplishments, smiling back is the reflection of beauty and excellence
