The Real Woman Cries For Flower

The real woman cries for flower.
A handed one makes her tower.
The much uplifted that hour!
Giver has but lent her power;
Just nothing would the day sour.

A woman, then free to glower,
If you'd promised her a flower
And it she saw not next hour;
As a replacement Bakers Flour...

Such a woman could make one cower:
For more than one grieving hour
Tongue-lashing men with full power?

"Go and sit down on your bower!"
