Embracing the beauty of the African Girl Child.

A Seed of Strength

Within her heart, a fire burns,

A spirit bright, a soul that yearns.

The African girl child, strong and bold,

A story waiting to unfold.

Her eyes reflect the sun's warm glow,

A tapestry of dreams, a vibrant show.

She carries within, a universe vast,

A potential waiting to be amassed.

From dusty paths to bustling streets,

She walks with grace, her spirit beats.

A symphony of strength, a melody bold,

A story waiting to be told.

Ngozi's brilliance, a guiding light,

Chimamanda's words, taking flight.

They show the path, the way to rise,

With dreams that touch the boundless skies.

Like Dr. Mae Jemison, who reached for the stars,

And Dr. Jennifer Riria, who led with scars.

Like Rebecca Enonchong, who codes with might,

And Dr. Nneile Nkholise, who innovates with light.

She sees the world with open eyes,

A thirst for knowledge, a burning desire.

To break the chains, to rise above,

To claim her place, to earn her love.

Her laughter echoes through the air,

A testament to hope, a vibrant prayer.

She'll conquer mountains, reach for the stars,

Leaving her mark, leaving her scars.

For within her heart, a seed is sown,

A seed of strength, a seed of her own.

The African girl child, a force to be,

A shining star, for all to see.

With potential so bright, a shining star,

In the dark of night, she'll travel far.

Her talents and skills, like a treasure trove,

Waiting to be unlocked, and her dreams to improve.

She has the power, to change the game,

To break the mold, and rewrite the fame.

Like Dr. Yvonne Mburu, who heals with care,

And Ayanna Howard, who innovates with flair.

Her voice is unique, her story untold,

A narrative of strength, in a world that's cold.

She can be a leader, a innovator, a queen,

A force for change, in a world unseen.

Don't let society define her role,

She has the power, to take control.

Embrace her culture, her heritage, her name,

And use them as fuel, to drive her flame.

She is a warrior, a fighter, a shining light,

A beacon of hope, in the dark of night.

So rise up, dear one, and claim her place,

And show the world, her beautiful face.

Like Wangari, who stood for what is right,

And Yaa Asantewaa, who fought for her light.

She too can make, a difference so grand,

And leave a legacy, that will expand.

So don't be afraid, to dream big and bold,

To soar into greatness, and never grow old.

She has the potential, to change the world,

And make her mark, like a precious pearl.
