The Woman

As the rib holds out a man,

A woman is to be cherished and behold.

A woman holds together 

whatever is inside her wings.

A woman puts together 

whenever and wherever one needs her care.

As the rib protects a man's heart,

A woman should be kept.

to be taken care of and to be cherished,

In all the struggles of this world, 

she remains the woman... quiet and still...

Yet, when all fails, and chaos is around

she dares to face the naked truth...

Slay...walk... battle it out 

though wounded and in pain.

As the Saviour is brought forth to us through a woman...

A woman saves the day 

with her wit, brevity, passion, and compassion.

She is The Woman, 

the embodiment of life.
