Gratitude

I Give thanks to the ones who came before

Sisters each and every

Denied their heart, their love

Not just in who they could

But in what they could give their soul.

For every sister who dreamt of walking among the stars,

I Give thanks.

For every sister who saw the beauty of molecules coming together,

I Give thanks.

For every sister who wanted more,

I Give thanks.

We who came after give thanks

For all you allowed us to be.

On your behalf, I promise to do my best

For all the sisters after me.
