4. WOMAN OF AFRICA.

The beautiful woman of Africa,

With strong, white, healthy teeth

Which glitters in the sun as she smiles

Singing a lullaby to the young ones

As she watches the cooking pot, on fire

Getting ready to provide for the family

Isn’t she a special being? 😀

She also is a beast of burden, baby on the back, luggage on the head

Subjected to rape, and the offender walks free

Forced to marry..for she is there to be seen, and not to be heard

Education for a woman,a luxury, not a necessity..

But educate a woman, and you educate a nation..

Isn’t she a special being?

The African woman is no longer in the dark

In politics,

“Wanawake hoiyee..,”hoiyeee” wamama hoiyeee “hoiyeee”

she shines like any other man

In her education,she has reached all levels

In marriage, she has a choice to marry (who to marry) or not

Wife molesting is now counted as law breaking

Banning of circumcision has made her a whole human being

None is safe until all women are safe

Woman!! Woman!!

You are such a special being!.
