For She is a threat of String
This is who you are Women a threat of string holding everything together.
“Strength like no other
Standing at a child’s grave.
Passion like a great lover
Holding me in her arms.
Love so steep
It makes my fear sleep.
Kindness so rear
It makes my heart cheer.
Tenderness so gentle
It makes every moment sentimental.
You see potential
It makes my Future essential
For once I am excited
The fire within me has been lighted
So be enlightened because the women inside have been ignited.
No fear of the future or being frightened
The Lord made a way and the path is brightened.
She smiles and knows He’s with them even in a thousand miles
As she walks one last time down the golden aisle”
-Nadia Basson
I wrote this poem for my two grandmothers on Women’s day this year. They made me believe that women in God can do anything as long as their heart is in Him, no person can break them and no circumstance can shake it, no walls are too steep and no waters too deep after all Our Life Guard Jesus Christ walks on water.
“ Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”- Isaiah 41:10
