Poem by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (Stetson)

Now

With God Above–Beneath–Beside–
 Without–Within–and Everywhere;
Rising with the resistless tide
 Of life, and Sure of Getting There.

Patient with Nature's long delay,
 Proud of our conscious upward swing;
Not sorry for a single day,
 And Not Afraid of Anything!

With Motherhood at last awake–
 With Power to Do and Light to See–
Women may now begin to Make
 The People we are Meant to Be!
