DON’T MEDDLE WITH A WOMAN

DON’T MEDDLE WITH A WOMAN


Don’t meddle with a woman;
She can be truly omen
Of ill fate, if she decides,
That you don’t have bona fides.

Every woman needs a space
Around her to keep her grace.
Trespassers, be on your guard.
Disgrace will be your reward.

Harken all, the tribe of men:
Be respectful to women.
As mother, a woman’s face,
Truly represents His grace.

God could not be everywhere;
So He made her to take care,
As mother, sister or wife,
Of man torn by mental strife.
