a woman Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

Beautiful was she
with blue eyes and a fair skin
everywhere she went heads would turn
where things seemed so impossible to implement she managed to activate them

When she walked, she swayed her hips
with head lifted high
she got everything she wanted
not because men wanted and longed after her
but because of her determination and self esteem

Where even the strongest men could not lift a heavy weight,
when she appeared, no matter who was there, she moved it
not with her hands
but with a smile

When she was not around there was slow progress
when she appeared, her smile would bring life to the ever dead serious offices

do not blame her
who could underestimate the power of a woman
its not her bribes that gets the jobs going nor her qualifications
it is nothing but her smile
her femininity
she may be weak physically
emotionally she is but the best
a family is managed by a woman
what of the nation.?

Being a counsellor is the most difficult and exciting job one could ever do. It makes you realise how important it is to save and restore life and mend broken relationships. Although you don't get paid, what is more important, a life or salary?
