A Girl Child

Dedicated to all girl children out there  On this International day of the girl child


                        A GIRL CHILD
I wish to tell you that you're the first solution God invented Himself. 
You're the reason for the word Nation  
You're the reason for the word family
And the word partnership came to being because you were made. 
What is life without a helper?
What would the world have been without you, a girl child?

Raiser of men of wisdom
Doom of men without knowledge. 
Even the bible calls you a good thing for whoever finds a wife amongst you. 
Men may tame the wildest beasts. 
But you tame even the strongest man. 
And while the men ran away from the tomb
You were the first to visit.
When they say women are the problem 
Remember to tell them...
Wrong application of right formula would always give the wrong answer

TODAY, I CELEBRATE ALL THE GIRLS ACROSS THE GLOBE  

*CONCEPTUAL FM ???*
