Im glad to be a woman, <br />thank god im not a man, <br />Im fine with my broom and a duster, <br />fine with a pot and a pan. <br /> <br />I can sizzle with clothes and makeup <br />I can burn with a come hither glance, <br />I can convey volumes with just one look <br />my feminity can send you into a trance. <br />.. <br />I can nurture the kids you sire, <br />nature has given me that role, <br />and remember if you ever cheat on me, <br />you'll wish you could crawl into a hole <br /> <br />I look after your entire kith and kin, <br />I have your mother, with which to compete, <br />remember all those dates and occasions, <br />juggling endless jobs, is no mean feat. <br /> <br />when my family, is threatened, I am a tiger, <br />its me, that you have to face, <br />your every lie and misdemeanour, I can sense in a jiffy <br />I can read, every muscle of your face. <br /> <br />and still, when it comes to loving, <br />Youll never find a more loyal wife, <br />you honour your comittment to the union, <br />and there will never be cause, for strife. <br /> <br />I don't need to resort to liquor, <br />to drown a sorrow or two, <br />God has given me enough strength, <br />enough courage, and calm <br />makes you wonder which sex is stronger of the two? <br /> <br />I have enough tears for the two of us, <br />which I'm not afraid to show, <br />and even when my children, and you need comfort <br />remember its to me, that they go <br />. <br />Im glad to be a woman <br />thank God Im not a man, <br />but this is all in jest, , <br />let your mind, be at rest, <br />don't scoff like a typical man. <br /> <br />In spite of all the facts, the statements above, <br />one is not complete without the other, <br />we can safely assume, after making a father, <br />God sat down to make, a mother.<br /><br />Arti Chopra<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thank-god-i-am-a-woman/
