WOMEN, THE PRIME AVAILABLE LAKE OF TALENT 

In past cultures, women, being autonomous, marvellously
Enjoyed equality, politically, economically, scripturally,
For example, the Cherokee women lived harmoniously, 
As producers, farmers, property owners and warriors.
Currently, in Rwanda, Ethiopia, Slovenia, Namibia,
Oman, New Zealand, France, Malaysia, Romania, Latvia,
India, to name a few, many top posts are held by women.

In developing countries, innovations in childcare provision,
Contraceptives, resulting in planned conception,
Alleviating wood and water collection,
Access to education, mobile banking, saving time and money,
And adopting new technologies successfully,
Families, communities and nations are enriched accordingly,
As the prime available lake of talent, illumines universally.

Women of this millennium dive into their creativity.
Being more intelligent than men emotionally,
Talented, confident, caring, career oriented and ambitious,
Manage all the chores efficiently and strike a fine balance
Between dedicated personal lives and the professional,
Develop a healthy and empowered relationship with all.
Working in different fields with patience, great vision, intuition,
Compassion, creativity, social connection and collaboration,
They have destroyed the myth with excellence
That men are more endowed with brilliance.
