The African Woman

The African woman is the pillar of wisdom

She aspires her children to reach to higher heights and do well

She pushes them to dream big

She makes their imagination soar high up like an eagle

And their imagination and hardwork makes them prosper

The African woman is a symbol of strength

The pain she bore in labor for her seven children says it all

She bears the burden of her family,community and nation

Salute to all African women

The African woman has true beauty

Not only her sacculent soft,ebony dark rich skin

That melts the heart of the strongest warrior

But also her inward beauty draws people to her

Her genuine affection for all brings out her beauty

The African woman having been deprived her rights

Has now shown us that there is nothing impossible

Now she has fought these battles and pulled them down

She is now a mother,doctor,politician and an ambassador.

So I salute all the African women out there
