Woman of Substance

She knows when to say yes and when to say no She gives you so much, you keep asking for more She manages her own home, kids and money Straight talk, her words are not dripped with honey She knows when you lie and looks you in the eye Nothing misses her sight not even a fly She can bulldoze her way into anything complicating Before you know it she’s got everyone clapping She will sacrifice her life if she believes it’s worth the cause When she puts her mind to something there is no press for pause And so we have, Indira Gandhi, Indra Nooyi and Sudha Murthy Michelle Obama, Angela Merkel and Jacinda Arden All these lovely ladies that need a good applause and garland
