You are seen: An ode to women

As another women’s month draws to a close, I want to take one final moment to remind women everywhere that they are not alone. “You are enough, exactly as you are right now.” A mantra I have returned to regularly in the past weeks and what guided me as I wrote the following ode to women everywhere. Remember. You are seen.

To women around the world on women’s month

Those who are thriving and those who are merely surviving

Those who are tired and those who run carefree

You are seen.

To the young girls

Inquisitive, innocent, and full of joy

Free to run, play, get dirty, make mistakes, and be a child

You are seen.

To the young women

Full of optimism, promise, and determination

Forging a new path built on the legacy of others

You are seen.

To the professional women

Focused, entrepreneurial, and eager to succeed

Establishing careers in a world still not built for them

You are seen.

To the mothers young and old

Loving, hopeful, and selfless

Providing enduring care and support without need for recognition

You are seen.

To the middle-aged women

Tired, anxious, but full of wisdom

Who are navigating a new freedom and the start of another chapter

You are seen.

To the women in their later years

Patient, reflective, and admiring

Who’s legacy forms the foundation of which younger women now stand

You are seen.

To women everywhere

Invisible and visible

Continuing the work of generations past in face of continued opposition

You are enough and you are seen.

May the actions and inspiration of this women’s month keep us energised until next year!
