Birthday Blessings: Women of South Africa Rsa
I
A day after Mayday, not observed in the US of A
But everywhere else, that's where my loves "stay"
On May 2, I celebrate the birth of one fine woman
Who went to University of Hard Knocks, and won
Her victory - through Christ - makes me pen thanks
To all women I had known through adolescence
II
The women of RSA are as hard-working as any anywhere
Many will pick up a tool and do a decent repair
Yes, my American friends excel, & we expect it there
But ladylike, approachable, yet able to demand things fair
While doing that which appears in Genesis, Proverbs (Scripture)
The balance amazes, birthday wishes & praises, I deliver
