To all the little girls
who spoke their adorable little minds
about whatever it was
that was going through their heads today,
I say "Good for you!
Keep up the good work
and keep shouting your hearts out!"

I am proud of you
for making your thoughts known
on placards and through megaphones.
I am oh so pleased
that you are fighting the good fight
regarding whatever it is
you think is right
today.

I hope you’re never so shy
as to avoid speaking truth
to your boyfriends and husbands and bosses
and asking your fathers and brothers
to not forget your interests.
What’s good for the girls
is good for the guys too
right?
Just so long
it’s not that time of the month.

So keep it up, ladies.
Be brave
and express yourself
informing everyone that you’ve got a voice
– and a high one.
March on, babes,
but, uh…when
do you think will dinner be ready?
