Graphic by Billie

Lady Warrior

She is your little sister,
She is your neighbor’s wife.
She is somebody’s daughter,
You’ve known her all her life.
She may be someone’s mother,
She may be someone’s nurse.
She now has an M-16,
But once it was a purse.
She’s as soft as satin fine,
She’s also tough as steel.
She may fly a fighter jet.
For so strong is her will.
She is the female warrior,
She serves her nation well.
She may be from northern climes,
Or even Southern Belle.
Honor her and show respect,
And pray for her each night.
Know that she is still a girl,
But not afraid to fight.

Thanks. Amy and Billie do all the hard work. I found all those words in the dictionary. All my poems are in the dictionary.

CBS is reporting the Reagan family is complaining that a conservative political ad's use of an image of Ronald Reagan implies that he endorsed President Bush. (AP 6/15/04)

"It's pretty sad that less than a week after America said farewell to President Reagan, George W. Bush's supporters are politicizing it." -- Kerry spokesman Chad Clanton

Thanks. I like to write couplets because they rhyme. Many people don't like couplets so I tell them, don't read them.

Actually Reagan did support GWB. I saw a W04 sticker on the hearse.
