Poem
A fragile but tough Creature,a woman,an Embodiment of glory and Honour wit heart deeper Than the deepest sea;ful Of mysteries. The mother of all humans A mystery herself that Emanates power and confidence-alas!the Egocentric man has for Centuries tried to strip Her of splendour. She in the cage of Subjugation has patiently Stayed,never complaining But a perfect planner. See how docile that Woman looks:appearing With ironic smiles in Paintings,never revealing Her real thoughts. Always flowing with the Tide,never knowing what Lies ahead-turned into a Beast of burden from the Pre-Roman times till date. Used as a"pleasure doll," "a monument,"........ "A parody" and the Medium of displaying Manhood by the male Folks. There is no haven for her Nor her "unfortunate" Unborn children,not at Home or even the society. This sleeping tigeress, When awakened,fights for Her rights more doggedly Than men. When she starts her Battles,she ceases not till Victory or defeat is sure. Once a man called Jason As told by Euripides the Great Gracian dramatist, Took the wife Media to Colchis and there he fell In love with another Daughter of King Aegstus A ridicle on Media's pride. Media fought back and Craftily gave her a Wedding present.Nay a Poisoned garment it was. The bride wore it and fell Dead,the King died Trying to rescue her doomed Daughter. Flushed with this Vegeance,Media slew her Children with Jason"I bore them,so I kill them." Oh!woman lamented Jason,you are the most Wicked of all creatures (He gune estin kakiste,toon Anthropoom). Also joan of Arch stood Ground till death. Like there were women of Note in mythology,so Were great women in Real life. Women crisis time seem To manage better,hence British forces vanquished Falkland and Goldie Meir Of Israel did the Arabs Humiliate. Here in my country, Outstanding women Abound. Senator Chris Anyanwu,an erudite,a Law-giver,a fearless lioness who revolutionalised the Mentality and thinking of The youth thru establishment of organs Of awareness. A visionary leader, Advocate for women Equality.Defender of the Weak,hand to the Handless,mother to the Motherless. Still the people's Mouthpiece-i salute you! Okonji Iwuala,Vice- president of World-bank, Thru her experience Transformed and Stabilized the economy to Buoyance. Dora Akunyere,as Graceful as a gazelle but Un-wavering like Everest. A lady of excellence- many Lives are saved thru your Meticulous efforts on the Eradication of fake drugs. Women are the base and Pillars of every society And homes. Lifeless would be the Earth without women. For a woman's heart can Be broken but her spirit Remains immortalised in The minds of those to Come.
