WOMAN POWER

In the beginning, God created Woman for Man

To be his faithful friend and companion.

If man treats her as a God-send

She will always remain man’s best friend.

In my wonderful native country of Trinidad.

Women are treated with the highest regard.

A Woman President and a former Woman Prime Minister.

A woman installed as the Presbyterian Church’s Moderator.

Days for regarding women as the weaker sex have gone.

Everywhere they are shining out and showing they can be strong.

All over the world, that fact has been recognised.

They hold top-paying jobs and that is no surprise.

Speakers of the house, Government ministers, Corporate Execs,

Women have held these posts with elegance and great depth.

Without women, who in this world can survive?

They are blessed with the power to give life.

Women are needed in almost every workplace

For their creative skills, gentleness, and airs of grace.

They are of immense value in every family

And are truly the bedrock of society.

  

Women are excelling in all professions

Some of them even rule over large nations.

Women are definitely equal in status to men.

That was always God’s plan for women.
