An Ordinary Woman

I am an ordinary woman
I carried another life in me.
I am an ordinary woman
I help shape this world
by nurturing that innocence
teaching love and compassion,
equality and hard work.
I am an ordinary woman
I create a peaceful and harmonious space,
a nourishing haven for my loved ones.
I am an ordinary woman
a shoulder to cry on
or a fountain of encouraging words
to a dear friend.
I am an ordinary woman
A pillar of strength and wisdom
for those fighting injustice.
I am an ordinary woman
always good for a warm hug.
I am an ordinary woman,
living an extraordinary life.
