Poem: God Bless Females, Women and Girls
Young Woman
Young Liberian woman, 1968
Females, Women and Girls
There are three things men don’t understand,
Three things they are confused about,
Three things that puzzle them;
Females, women and girls.
There are three things men are grateful for,
Three things they cannot do without,
Three things they will live to cherish;
Females, women and girls.
To mothers for their caring and loving heart,
To sisters for their concern and advice,
To ladies for their comfort and warmth;
God bless females, women and girls.
How would life be without them,
How would life be for men without them,
And how would I know the much am blessed,
If females, women and girls didn’t exist.

Beautiful piece! thanks for sharing your appreciation for females, and the value each one adds to the world.
I would love to include this poem to EmeraldPoetry: a book project to empower women through poetry, you retain all rights, and funds will support women in eastern europe at risk of poverty, trafficking and domestic violence. Thanks :)
