Happy Mother's Day.
My personal tribute to Women, and Women in Uniform in particular.
Women
Born into this world full of hope,
Intelligent, loving and able to cope.
For a lifetime of hardship lay ahead of them,
Because in this world, they are not men.
Without our women our species will cease to exist,
Yet abuse and belittlement continues to persist.
Fiercely loyal, they will give their all,
Ready to fight and die for their country’s call.
Treat them with the respect that they deserve,
For with them, our humanity we can preserve.
