Amazing Creature

By Ruhudeen Ali
April 3rd, 2009

Isn't she an amazing creature?
In her prancing and going about
she leaves all wonders left to envy.
But admirers of her form, without a doubt,
don't understand the allure contained even deeper!
Oh what splendid Divinity did make this graceful beauty?
In futility the lush world mimics her every feature
all attempts to convey her praises, in reality,
exist beyond the poets' nomenclature.

She is woman; wife, mother, daughter, sister, neice,
As mother, she is man's very first teacher.
Of compassion all other creatures only share a piece
Suffice it to say that Heaven itself lies at her feet!
As wife, she is man's perfection of peace
she will help support you in every task and feat.
As daughter, from hellfire's sears she is man's protecting sheet
she strengthens man to leap beyond any and every difficulty.
As sister and neice, she is the rose of every family
helping you smile even in defeat.

In every way she is the pair to man.
If he is the rugged arm she is the delicate hand.
If he is the table spread she is the supportive stand.
He is the grazing sheep and she is the supple land.
How can she continually supply
when she's so much in demand?

An amazing creature she is, woman is her name
all who encounter her majesty will never again be the same!

I'll take two, please lol Seriously though, the real shame is that I never have the patience to respond to your posts thoroughly so I always leave one-liners. I read it all, though, I swear!
