Alive With Enthusiasm Poem by BRENDA KANSHABE TUMUSHABE

look at me am nothing but a girl
not downcasted by my gender
emancipated and strong
not only in body but also in mind

look i can do all things
by the s trength God bestowed in me
there is alot more than my gender
a cultivative proactive creative youth

look not only at the physical me
but also the spiritual me
who can overcome by the positive mindset
i can start out on my own and be

i can not only because others did
but because am alive
my mind is functional
and my senses are never dyfunct

who tells you am nothing but a girl
look at the entire nation
how many powerful joints are held by women
mmmh they were once girls

yes i can do all things
as long as determination is my key
yes i will open all the doors
to wherever i want to be
to wherever i want to go

sister look we can do all things
lie back not anymore
lean on your weaknesses fret over them not
they are only stepping stones

you know what sister
take this positive mindset
positive attitude and positive thinking
they are the means to your craved for tomorrow

cheer up your mind it will cheer you up
feed it with luxuries of your youth
it will feed you with bitterness of adulthood
