The Vows of the Wandering Girl




She will spearhead reforestation efforts, planting millions of trees 
Where deserts once lay barren, green forests will thrive,
Creating habitats for wildlife, letting nature revive,
Oxygen-rich air, a breath of fresh life.

She’ll fund clean energy projects, solar and wind,
Phasing out coal, reducing carbon's bind,
Solar panels on rooftops, wind turbines in fields,
A sustainable energy future, the earth yields.

She’ll invest in education, building schools worldwide,
Offering scholarships, ensuring no talent is denied,
STEM programs to innovate, arts to inspire,
A generation of thinkers, dreams on fire, 
For the greatness of all on this earth dimension, 
Science and art 
Will finally achieve unification 

She’ll support ocean clean-ups, tackling plastic waste,
Marine life thriving, ecosystems embraced,
Innovative tech to filter, to cleanse the seas,
Blue waters pristine, nature’s harmony at ease.

She’ll create sustainable agriculture, organic and fair,
Supporting local farmers, showing she cares,
Reducing pesticides, embracing biodiversity,
Healthy food for all, promoting equity.

She’ll build clinics and hospitals, healthcare for all,
In remote regions, answering the call,
Vaccinations, treatments, mental health care,
A healthier world, with compassion to spare.

Forests will flourish, deserts will retreat,
Cities will breathe easier, with cleaner air to greet,
A global shift to renewables, a planet less warm,
Education and innovation, a new era will be born.


The Ballad of the Wandering Girl


In the heart of Portugal, where pine trees sway,
On a quaint little farm, cradled by nature's embrace,
A girl was born under the break of day,
Her laughter echoing in serene grace.

Her childhood was woven with the songs of birds,
The rustling leaves, the murmuring streams,
Her companions were animals, her friends were words,
From the wind and the earth, her innocent dreams.

She grew with the seasons, the sun and the storm,
Her heart in the soil, her soul in the sky,
But the world beyond beckoned, not to conform,
And she knew it was time to say goodbye.


With dreams in her pocket and strength in her stride,
She ventured forth to lands unknown,
To Nottingham, where the Trent does glide,
Her spirit unyielding, her courage full-blown.

In Nottingham, she faced her first foreign fight,
In the rain, she learned to persist,
From bustling streets to the quiet night,
She built her life, her spirit resist.

Eleven apartments, turned into homes,
Each one a sanctuary, a story, a place,
With every struggle, her spirit roams,
Her heart finding peace in life's embrace.

From Nottingham’s fog to Spain's bright heat,
She moved with grace, her resolve unbent,
In Barcelona's light, her reign unfolded,
With kindness and pulse, her energy spent.

On the warmth coasta, she learned to thrive,
In the breeze, she danced with the sea,
With each new city, she felt more alive,
Her path unfolding, her destiny free.

The struggles were many, the nights were long,
But her belief in herself never waned,
She fought for her dreams, her spirit kept strong,
Her perseverance untouched, always unchained.

She met kind souls who lent a hand,
Strangers who became friends,
In her journey through foreign lands,
Their kindness, endless love, filled in all ends.

Her family doubted, but she believed,
In herself, more than they ever could,
She found her mission, her soul relieved,
In distant lands, her soul flourished and seen

"Keep moving" became her sacred creed,
Her mantra, her guiding light,
“Karma’s a bitch,” she’d often concede,
But faced it all with fearless might.

Through the lens of science, she found her place,
A girl of nature, in a scientific space,
With the strength of the earth, she embraced
Her mission, her purpose unfurled.

In the heart of the farm where her journey began,
She found the peace she sought so far,
Her life a testament of strength,
Her spirit, a resilient shinning star.

Now she stands, a beacon bright,
A girl who wandered far and wide,
From Portugal’s fields to stages spotlight,
With nature’s wisdom as her mother guide.

Her song, a melody of struggle and grace,
Of cities and homes, of dreams and strife,
A story of a girl who found her place,
Her life, an ode to a fulfilled life.

In the heart of Portugal, where pine trees sway,
On a quaint little farm, cradled by nature’s embrace,
She returns, her spirit light as day,
Her journey, her song, a testament to grace.

And now, with millions in her bank account,
The stars shine brighter, the earth feels her touch,
Her success a tale no one can discount,
Her vision and mission, she’ll achieve so much.

With billions yet to come, her plans unfold,
To heal the earth, to make it anew,
Her wealth a tool, her heart of gold,
A brighter future, she's ready to pursue.

She’ll plant forests where deserts lie,
Turn wastelands green, let rivers flow,
Harness the sun, let the wind sigh,
In harmony with nature, the world will grow.

Invest in clean energy, banish the smoke,
Empower the young, the old, and the meek,
Build schools and clinics, mend what’s broke,
Her billions a beacon for the change we seek.

Sustainable farming, oceans clean,
Tech that heals, not harms the earth,
A vision grand, a future seen,
Her mission clear, her values of worth.

She’ll lead with kindness, with wisdom wide,
Her steps her path, with heart on a flame,
For the earth she loves, with stars as her guide,
Her legacy, a world reclaimed.

In the heart of Portugal, where pine trees sway,
On that quaint little farm, her story began,
A girl who dared to dream far away,
Now returns to heal the world, as planned all the way.

Far away tales of a timid soul

Once a shy and timid soul,
But now a woman, strong and whole,
She left her home, her doubts, her fears,
And ventured forth, despite the tears.

Her heart was set on lofty goals,
To reach for stars, and take control,
Of her own destiny, her own fate,
And leave behind, a life sedate.

She chose a path, not for the faint,
A scientist's life, with much to gain,
And though the road was long and steep,
She climbed it well, with courage deep.

For every hardship, every pain,
She rose above, and did not wane,
With every test, she proved her might,
Her spirit shining, fierce and bright.


And now she stands, a shining star,
A beacon of hope, from near to far,
A role model, to all who see,
The power of what one can be.

For she has shown, with every breath,
That bravery can conquer death,
And with a heart that's true and bold,
One's dreams can come to life, unfold.
 

Far away tales

In a far-off land, a girl once dwelled,
A timid soul, her story tells,
Her heart was filled with dreams untold,
But fear and doubt had taken hold.


She longed to travel, see the world,
To break the chains that had her curled,
And so one day, she took a leap,
And left her town, her heart to keep.

She journeyed far, to foreign shores,
And faced the challenges in store,
Although she felt so small and meek,
Her courage rose, her future sleek.

She worked hard, day and night,
And paid her way, with all her might,
Through university, at twenty-six,
Her passion for science, her only fix.


Though she left her family behind,
Her spirit soared, her heart aligned,
She spoke to few, but her work spoke loud,
A role model, her name renowned.

For she had proven, with every stride,
That bravery comes from deep inside,
And with a gentle, quiet flame,
She lit the way, to a brighter name.

The Tale of the Path

In a small town, there lived a girl so shy,
Her dreams were big, but her words were dry.
She longed to break free from her humble abode,
To explore the world and find her own road.

With courage in her heart and fire in her soul,
She set out to reach her ultimate goal.
To a foreign land, she journeyed alone,
To claim the life she had always known.


Her family she left behind in tears,
But her spirit knew no fears.
Her eyes gazed upon the horizon wide,
As she bravely moved forward with the tide.

Her journey was long, and her path was steep,
But her passion kept her from falling asleep.
She worked hard day and night,
Her future shining bright.



At the age of twenty-six,
Her hard work paid off with a twist.
She became a scientist so wise,
With knowledge that reached the skies.

Her family she hardly spoke to,
But her achievements spoke volumes too.
A role model to many, she stood tall,
Her success inspiring one and all.

Her heart filled with pride,
As she looked back at the path she had tried.
The journey had been long and tough,
But she had shown the world her true stuff.

Now a famous scientist worldwide,
Her success a reflection of the fire inside.
A shy girl who dared to dream big,
And worked hard to dance her own jig.
