All beautiful and smart ladies seek security and joy to live life;
Beauty is their weapon as pen for poet and gun for soldier in war;
Care they take with whom they can align themselves to in the world!
Details in minute they gather to form correct opinions for all ever;
Everything they want to surmount without harms by their cleverness;
Fun with friends they enjoy much to strengthen their strategy sure!
Great many achievements in the world are by their ideas behind screen;
High royal places are where they stay long and effect great things;
Iconic activities are mainly due to them have been enacted in the world!
Joy of achieving greater good for the world has come out of their brain;
Kings, ministers like Julius Caesar and Antony are pawns with Cleopatra;
Love they use cleverly to movie their coins in Chess board of governance!
Many a kingdom rose to power and fell down due to their manipulations;
Now shrewd and smart ladies one can notice even in plays of Shakespeare;
Openly they challenged opponents and won battles by their intelligence!
Power behind great kingdoms were in the hands of such ladies we know;
Queens of great world empires were smart and wonderful ladies only ever;
Royal breed of ladies never seemed to have left sans doing great acts!
Sustaining in power long they controlled administration efficiently;
Truly they did best ever and died in dignified death, when they failed;
Unique talent of survival kept those smart ladies in well to do status!
Various positions they occupied in various countries of world history;
World admired at their greatness not only behind screen but also in power;
X and Y they may look like due to modesty, but in skill they excel many!
Years of skillful works and learning by experience, they were wise ever;
Zealous activities of beautifully smart ladies made them gems of humanity!

Sir, you have taken a very interesting and riveting subject but feel that it has not gone beyond 'X and Y they may look like due to modesty'. Apart from Cleopatra (with her male counterparts Julius Caesar and Mark Antony plus The Bard of Avon) , no other woman worth her name or her achievements from ancient to the present times has been mentioned. Isn't it strange?
Indeed there are so many women in various fields have done a lot for the nations and world! They are all everyone knows now; but the ones who are permanent in the minds of all are the ones I have quoted here. Thanks my friends for your good comment!
