The Tales Of Women
Women, for centuries, have been known as house wives.
We were always told, a woman's place is in the home.
But today, we have broken down the barriers
and created a place in history for ourselves.
No more are we only tools.
Some women still choose to run the household.
While others have chosen to be in the corporate world.
Some are Carpenters, Masons, Electricians, Teachers,
Doctors, Lawyers, Politicians and Preachers.
Still, some men try to belittle us, saying
women have no place in a man's world.
Oh yes, they are afraid of a strong woman.
Given the task of a man, we do it without fear or scorn.
And that's fact, but the pay they cut back.
We'll keep fighting until we are recognized
as a great force in all societies.
And are given the wages we rightfully deserve.
Sisters, fight on, for this battle is not just for the strong.
If we remain true, focused and faithful,
then, victory will be our song.

Our Creator
God is the being who created us all.
He is not a plaything or a toy,
Even though his name is taken in vain
He still forgives us all the same.
God is the being who created us all,
Color of skin means nothing at all,
If man continues to divide us,
There is no maybe God will chastise us.
God becomes more angry every day
As he listens to what we day and do
To each other day after day.
When they shoot us and we die,
Peace; Peace, is the constant cry.
One creator made us all: flesh,
Blood and bones we are,
A fact no one can deny.
Vast destruction will be this country's end
If man don't try to make amends.
