Chukwuemeka Mbah Poet I do not know?

She Man

…Then you came

Became succor to the sick

Inspired confidence in the weak

Shouldered the beaten, broken and burdened

Counseled the weary, wounded  and  worried

You perfected their strength in your weakness

You defied your gender and frame to greatness

Indelible in our memory is how you blazed our trail

Now we live in time with your legacy in trail of your blaze…

Dedicated to Adorable Ada di Ora nma Akunyili and every other woman that has ever stood for a positive cause

 

 
it is said of Great Women

May we Know Them
May we Love Them
May we Raise Them

        

SHE MAN

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
