A Woman's Worth


                       A woman is powerful;

            Walks tall, and holds her head high.
Oh, I see lightning, and hear rumbling thunder in 
     Many women as much in as out of my life;
   All diamonds that shine and twinkle! I have a
 Nurturing mother, headstrong wife, wise sisters.  
        So beautiful in body and spirit is every...

        Woman! Infinitely worth more than any 
       Ornament that glistens against the Sun.
   Remember that, always and forever, because...
 To devalue a woman's worth, to get so much as 
        Halfway to forgetting is a crying shame!
