Empowered Surfer Girl – Original Poem
By Mark A. Leon
In the depths of azure waves, they rise, Warrior women with salt-streaked eyes, Gleaming hearts that fiercely beat, Empowered souls, the ocean’s fleet.
Upon their boards, they dance with grace, Chasing the sun in every embrace, A symphony of strength and motion, Ocean’s daughters, bound by devotion.
With hair like seaweed, flowing wild, They ride the tides, unreconciled, Against the odds, they stand tall, Conquering fears, they break the wall.
Embracing swells with fearless might, They ride the waves, their hearts alight, Defying norms and limitations, Challenging societal expectations.
In barrels deep, they find their power, For, in the sea, no constraints devour, Their spirit roars, an ocean’s song, Resilient, they belong.
Through every wipeout, they persist, Resilience carved within their fist, Unified with the ocean’s might, Harnessing strength with every fight.
Beyond the waves, their voices rise, Fierce advocates for the seas’ demise, Protectors of the water’s soul, United in a righteous goal.
In the sunset’s embrace, they gather, Kindred spirits, hand in hand, they tether, Building a world of sisterhood, Empowering others, they’ve withstood.
So let their tales inspire anew, The legacy of women who grew, In oceans’ depths, they find their voice, In surfers’ hearts, they find their choice.
With every wave that they embrace, They find empowerment’s warm embrace, Forever bound to the ocean’s sway, Female surfers, fierce and free, they stay.
