A Woman of Influence

A woman of influence

Knows who she is in the world

Is certain that no door is truly sealed

And is free to make the choices of her heart.

A woman of influence

Shares her smile and her sharp wit

The ups and downs of life’s road

And the myriad contents of her purse.

A woman of influence

Has lived life many ways

Faced harsh sun and biting wind

And weathered the storms of her time.

A woman of influence

Gets her hands dirty with service

Collects and heals wounded souls

And freely gives of her own spirit.

A woman of influence

Practices charity, grace, humor, and tough love

Says the things other never dare

And needs no official title to be

A woman of influence.
