The Great Woman Poem by Lateefatallah Suleiman

The Great Woman

Rating: 4.8


I

The vigorous and adorable woman I'm reaching out to

Cos even through hardships, she plans to succeed too

To some, she's openly bad, but then at her best

Cos in her quest for success, she's got zest.

Though a woman, towards all, she's diligent and faithful

Also to her Creator, volitionally thankful

II

Manifestly, making the world safe for her husband O YEAH

Even if the man makes it so darn unsafe for her.

Her mind's cleaner, she changes it more often

Even if the man's heart is like a rock that can't be broken

A soul mate very honest and merry

And in every way, worthy to be called a wiffy.

III

The unshattered widow left with almost nothing to cater for her children

But without no choice, satisfied with what she's given

And then gracefully nurture them with no partial,

Regardless some's cases are crucial.

Her trying to please them with everything, especially food

Is a price she must pay for the glories of motherhood

IV

The humble beseecher of her Lord's favours

Who's contented with whatever He brings Forth

Atimes, her devotion is of a sick health

Yet, utmost to her Lord as He grants her request,

Of course, He's pleased with her womanish

Thereof furnishing her with laurels of lush
