Peruvian women

Indigenous Women are

making a noise

its justice and rightness

they are the joys

that women are needing

land rights you see

Culture respect and identity

being the stewards of the forest

rings true

so much is wrong everywhere

we do what we do

ignoring the forests

Neglecting the trees

denying the women

their business to please

Peruvian Women

let their voices be heard

the threats and the challenges

as if a bird

flies from the canopy

into the sky

their amiability

is worth a try

a state of wonder

remarkably

up against the indifference

which is needlessly

calling for courage

affection and care

these beautiful women

Ride high on a prayer
