Philosophy of A Woman

Abas Obot 1994 (Akwa Ibom State)

Ode


A woman has her own philosophy,
Sometimes she gives her heart to the servant of the cabin,
Rejecting the master's wholesome offer,
She would not move to meet the emperor,
If he does not match her heart desire,
She can reject the rich and well-settled man,
But makes a lowly gentleman feels very special,
If a woman wants to settle down she's happy even in the hut,
And if she doesn't want to settle down she can kick away palaces,
She can build you if she is deep into you,
And she can destroy you if she does not care,
Bring her to your hut, she can turn it into a mansion,
Lend her your ears and she would advise like a mother,
Offer her your house and see her transform it into a home,
Send her your sperm, she would create you a child,
Find her some trouble and wait for what your eyes shall see,
That is how wonderful a woman can be.
