Chapter 3 : She Can Do Anything

Summary: This Women’s Month, in tribute of the women's march (where 20,000 women of different races marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to protest against legislation aimed at controlling the movement of black individuals by forcing them to carry pass books)- we want to recognize how SHE CAN DO ANYTHING. We want to spend the next month looking back on women’s achievements, their milestones as well as reflecting on the challenges they have faced in the struggle to be free and the important role they continue to play in society. Let us contribute our two lines towards weaving a poem that reminds us that- “She believed she could, so she did”- R S Grey.

The Poem: She Can Do Anything



Oh yes, we are overcomers

There is no situation that we cannot handle.

( Jane )


Smiles as bright as the sun

Deadlier than a Sith Lord

( Jarrid )


To hope, to hate, to love, to loathe, to be a woman.

Never the equal, forever fighting - see me as human.

( Artemis )


Women are soft; they are kind.

They have the biggest hearts that one will ever find.

( HPR )


If she walks into wind with her back straight and her thoughts at peace.

If she harnesses the energy of the earth and embraces her oneness with the cosmos.

( Gillian Krummeck )


And the stars blinked as they watched her carefully.

Jealous of the way she shone.

( Atticus Poetry )


Foolish thinks she is equal as man.

She is greater, indeed superior and more trimphant.

( Kwaku Dua )


Daughter of the ultimate powerful and almighty deity,

an eternal warrior and queen in the making.

( Lee Herbert )


Women are both beautiful and wise

to any man they are always the first prize!

( Tertu )


Woman; true, giving, supporting, caring and loving; man's amazing counterpart.

Someone that is always open at heart.

( Melissa Lindolent )
