Honoring Women Entrepreneurs of America, INC on the first anniversary of my sisters in the Indianapolis chapter, founder Yolanda Lamar-Wilder and President Vivian Barnes and all the staff all over the nation and the world. I'm very proud in spite of my busy schedule to take time to write from my heart. Keep inspiring women everywhere.

Poem Artwork

Always reaching for the "unreachable" gleaming star,
Making pathways in the failure of the fog
Ever stretching past the barbs of naysaying nonbelievers,
Risking all for something that was never done before
Interweaving multiple foundations of old faith
Carrying loads of other precious daughters of the dust,
Acknowledging wisdom of elders in their hearts
Noting right from wrong, and moving on. . . .

Work is never a task, but a step to a higher plane
Obstacles naturally challenge our desire to move on,
Maybe dreams are really meant for children,
we say;
Even when struggling in the middle of a project
None-the-less, they climb, still moving on
. . . .

Energy comes from the champion's heartbeat 
Newness runs swiftly with imagination's wings
Tirelessly and timely somehow things just come together
Ruling status quo looks up at the crystal ceiling broken
Eager to share these women show care
Power regenerates the tongue of experience
Reaping far more than they ever knew they could plant
Especially when everyone around them ignor'd their course
Nevermore will the cries go unnotic'd by the crowd
Executive management must bow its masculine knee
Usher in the era of a day not known before
Restore the wealth from the women underpaid
Speak praise of founding genius in each and every one.

The truth is that women rule the business world and control the majority of the wealth. We are strong and powerful, we handle responsibility with precision and as the multi-taskers that we are. We are astute business persons with the strength of the most powerful yet have the compassion to collect a small, hungry, abandoned kitten from a street corner and nurture it until it becomes healthy and whole. Women address business and life from every aspect and do not confine their focus to the problems, but look rather to finding the solutions. We are multi-faceted like the most percision cut gems; we shine when we have many diverse tasks to complete at once. With one child on our hip and another on our breast, we clean the house, do the laundry, balance the checkbook, change the diapers, plant the garden and get dinner on the table on time. Handling a business is a piece-of-cake!! "We are women...hear us roar!" Excellent acrostic, Cynth'ya.
Take care,
Sherry
