The Queen of Our Lives

From my rib 

  

Into the world you became 

The essence of elegance 

The carrier of life 

Your nurturing spirit 

Your caring soul 

  

A Woman 

  

Disgrace is brought upon a man that disrespects you 

You have courage under fire as you struggle to beat the odds 

Bombarded with life’s tough issues 

You face them head on with stride and grace 

  

A Woman 

  

It hurts my heart to see you suffer 

It pains my soul to witness the pain you endure 

The true queen of our lives 

  

A Woman 

  

I cherish you 

I cater to you 

I love you 

  

A Woman 

  

No one feels compassion like you 

No one cares and nurtures in your way 

No one understands the pain of child birth as you do 

  

A Woman 

  

Some men today don’t appreciate you 

Most men today love and respect you 

The true queen of our lives 

  

A Woman
