    Poem: A woman’s worth

    We are always taught to do our best
    To not worry and forget the rest
    To not listen to what others say
    Because someday soon others will pay

    I always did try to follow these rules
    but some parents and the girls were just so cruel
    They would always point,laugh and stare
    But I never really thought it was fair

    Every mother has a dream
    But for some its not what it seems
    A beautiful and smart girl is what they desire
    But don’t know how to do so when it comes down to the wire

    So they push and push till they can’t push anymore
    But soon come to realize their dreams have been pushed to the floor
    With all their fake smiles and gowns
    Little do they know they are all going down

    Smile and wave till you walk off the stage
    Those girls scores will jump off the page
    Pretending to be someone your not
    Eventually it becomes all you’ve got

    Depending on what the judges may say
    They could make or break a girls day
    Hoping and praying they make a perfect ten
    I believe that none of those girls should win.
