She Works Hard
At dawn she wakes with thoughts of all the things she needs to do
Just waking from the dreams she feels her presence become due
She knows that she has jobs to do, her mission to fulfil
And part of life is doing what she needs to do with will
For her life is not without its daily duties given
And her dreams will not come true unless her actions driven
No matter what her day becomes, she just has things to do
That maybe insignificant to me and others too
For every woman has a part of her that tends to see
That others feel her life is not as worthy or deemed
Good enough to get the peace, prosperity or play
That others seem to get from not as much in their own day
Be sure to understand that every woman plays a part
In making life a better way, it is where we have to start
So do not feel that you are ever on your own
It is only through our tender ways this love will ever grow
No matter what you have to do, your life is centred in
Making the world a better place, whatever job you’re given
As long as we all do our bit, our energies entwine
Our gentle ways grow strength each day, they’re needed yours and mine
Each soul is as precious as the next, don’t ever feel they are not
See the courage in yourself, make good the life you’ve got
And every day we work together, goodness from within
We make the world get better still and each day we can begin
See your dreams come true and make every day so gracious
Each step becomes a masterpiece, a journey very precious
Make action plans and take each step, one by one and do
All the things you have to do to make those dreams come true
