Happy Birthday To ME

I was born this day in the rain many years ago
to Winifred and John who was absent then
Winifred was alone and for her efforts she
was locked away for giving birth in freedom
illegitimate they called me then born out of
wedlock,on the wrong side of the blanket
never the less I existed to be here strong
I was born on the last day of July,after the
second world war a peacemaker come to
protect the children of the blue planet to tell
them we had another place to go if this one
was destroyed by the men who do not care
for women children babies oceans and life
My name sheila for the feminine race the
face of all that is divine and balanced in love
