Tears of a Woman

Tears of a woman, can move mountains; Everest can migrate across the Pacific and settle on the Rockies The Kilimanjaro can fly and squat on Andes because of her tears; the tears of a woman can irrigate the Sahara. Her tears can create oasis, where nature could not Tears of a woman, can be a blessing tears of a woman can be a curse. Empires have risen, empires have fallen, the impotent have risen the great have fallen due to tears of a woman. A woman’s weakness is her strength, and her strength, her weakness Come along and listen Put your hands in your mouth let your eyes twinkle with wonder and dismay This daughter of the universe has mystery in her eyes. Her life spells impossibilities, but the world tinkles on and on not without her
