Dahlia of the Desert

Head held high like a queen in procession

Gentle eye and stark expression

A tribute to women who cannot stand

Against tribulations brought by man

Proud but weary of the way

As women before were led astray

Of the view she presents to the world

Like any woman or little girl

Her dreams as vast as the desert scape

A superhero without a cape

Representing voices who cannot speak

A beacon of strength for those deemed weak
