Women From Girls Transitional Education and Consulting Services
A future more precious than diamonds or pearls Relies on our choice to raise women from girls.
In her young twinkling eyes I know I cant find Limitations, detachment, or weakness of mind. When I listen to voices of laughter and hope I dont hear a helplessness failing to cope Through the hugs and the kisses I know I dont feel Abuse and neglect, or a heart that cant heal. When I give her direction and show her I care Then I cant imagine a life of despair When questioned or challenged, in times of great need, These sisters will answer, these sisters will lead. Their words will be steady, their deeds strong and true, Well know who they are through the good that they do. As they meet each new challenge, extending their reach Well all benefit from the wisdom they teach. As they join with their brothers these sisters will build The future we want and the life God has willed.
