Wingapo friends!
This blog is a little different. I met an awesome friend in Chongwe. She inspired me to write about her, but I didn’t want it to be normal. I tried something new and wrote a poem. Princess is a wonderful friend who wields her story to change the world instead of letting her story dictate her. It is so common everywhere in life to see people take what life hands them, and accept that as their lot, but it is such a blessing to see people (anywhere) rise up and take charge of their future and to change their circumstances.
Princess
Regal
Head held high
Noble
Steps sure and light
I’m filled with my own authority
A ruler in my own right
These circumstances which tried hold me
Poverty
It rules me
Grief
It robes me
Sorrow
It purposes me
These circumstances which adorn me
I rule them, whatever they may be
Queen
Of circumstance
Princess
Of chance
I am filled with my God’s authority
I am a child of the light
