The Kinda' Girl

Contributed by: Marie Page

I teach the Beehives in our ward and during opening exercises one of the girls handed me a poem that she had written after attending EFY in ourarea on Friday and Saturday before. This went great with our lesson andI shared it with the class after the story of a young woman who refusedto lower her dating standards

I asked if I could share and she gave me permission so please feel free to use this poem if you would like.

For all the guys who date the girls
and sense the good and bad;
and the girl who lives by right
there's a label she has had.

The kinda' girl that wears a crown
and knows she is a queen
watching for a perfect boy
and nothing in-between.

Because the jewels and diamonds
that glitter in her soul,
it's not too hard to tell her apart;
and the boys, they always know.

But the kinda' girl that isn't sure,
her way is not so straight,
she shows herself as not a queen
and doesn't want to wait.

How many nights will she feel guilt
and worry for her way?
How many guys will use her ease
and how much will she pay?

She's forgotten who she is
and her royal parents dear!
Would a preincess dress in rags
or so she does appear?

No, you always want to be
the princess that you are;
don't forget even when it's dark
there always is a star!

Now which one do you want to be?
A girl with honor steady,
with fire in her soul
and with beauty beyond many,

the kinda' girl that will wait
until she wears a ring.
And then she'll know she is a queen
and valiant is her king.
