What A Man Needs From A Woman



A man needs a woman who will be by his side
To encourage him and at times to be a guide

In times when his life has somewhat taken its toll
A strong woman will be there to assume control

A man needs to know that his woman will be there
When the world is against him he knows she cares

The right woman would nurture the ego of a man
A man needs his woman to be his number one fan

In times when a man isn't functioning at his best
A good woman knows the right thing to suggest

When the chips are down and there are problems
A good woman will do what it takes to solve them

A man needs a good woman even if she's no beauty
The main thing is that she'll always perform her duty

The icing on a cake will be that the woman is spiritual
A good woman is to man, God's Blessing and a miracle
