Women’s Day 2025 Short Poems

Here are some short poems of Women’s Day 2025 your child could recite in the school event:

Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

“Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size

But when I start to tell them,

They think I’m telling lies.

I say,

It’s in the reach of my arms,

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I’m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That’s me.”

I Am She by Butch Decatoria

“I am she

Who waits through the night.

I am she

Who equals the strength

Of his light.”

We As Women by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

“Now then, all forward together!

But remember, every one,

That ‘tis not by feminine innocence

The work of the world is done.

The world needs strength and courage,

And wisdom to help and feed

When, ‘We, as women’ bring these to man,

We shall lift the world indeed.”

Still I Rise by Maya Angelou

“You may write me down in history

With your bitter, twisted lies,

You may trod me in the very dirt

But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?

Why are you beset with gloom?

’Cause I walk like I've got oil wells

Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,

With the certainty of tides,

Just like hopes springing high,

Still I'll rise.

You may shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness,

But still, like air, I’ll rise.”

Reciting these poems Women's Day 2025 will also give your child awareness about the important day and strength womanhood exhibits in all spectrums of life.
