THE WONDER OF THE WOMAN

IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WARMS LIKE A MOTHER’S ARMS?
WHAT THRILLS AS MUCH, AS HER TENDER TOUCH?
WHAT BRIGHTENS UP THE SKIES, LIKE YOUR MOTHER’S EYES?
IS THERE A PRETTIER PLACE, THAN YOUR MOTHER’S FACE?
WAS THERE A SWEETER SOUND EVER UTTERED,
THAN HER WHISPERED WORD?

IS THERE A SAFER SPACE, THAN ENWRAPPED IN HER EMBRACE?
WITHOUT WOMEN, THERE WOULD BE NO WE, IN THIS WORLD,
NO BOUNCING TO THE BEAT; NO BATONS BEING TWIRLED.
WITHOUT WOMEN, THERE WOULD BE NO KINGS, NO QUEENS;
NO HALLS OF HAPPY, HOLLERING HUMAN BEINGS.

SO,
CELEBRATE OUR DEAR DAUGHTERS, SWEET SISTERS,
AND WONDERFUL WIVES.
CELEBRATE THE ONE, TO WHOM WE OWE OUR LIVES.

SOME GUYS ARE ASLEEP. OPEN UP YOUR EYES,
SO YOU CAN SEE, MEN!
STAND, RISE AND CELEBRATE
THE WONDER OF THIS WORLD.

CELEBRATE WOMEN!
