Like a flower she bloomed,
Pregnant with tomorrow
As she anticipated the next minute.

She constantly thrusts her head up high,
And hopes for a bright future.
Are there really better days ahead?

But she had today to deal with.
Comically, she needs butter on her bread,
When she doesn't even have a daily bread.

With little she has got,
Life took it away
And drifted her to sorrow.

While she hoped for the morrow,
But battled with today,
Life gave her a great barrow to conquer.

She became a soldier quite too early
And knew she had to be on her guard or,
Life would knock her down.

She learnt to be firm,
While she sailed the ship of life through the storm
And not retiring to the cabin even for once.

Time and time, she sailed through the storm
Till it was over,
And peace was restored.

The sun had to smile at her for her great feat,
While life had to give her roses for being a champion.
She became engraced.

This is a testament that we should never give up,
Give up on our dreams and hopes,
Give up on the desires our hearts beats for.

Sail through eagle!
Soar and don't let the storm stop you.
Spread your wings and fly.

She wasn't willing to give up.
For the will of God was for her to succeed.
And yes, she became a success.

I give you the girl pregnant with tomorrow,
The girl who already takes the lead today.
I give you, Cleopatra.
