Oh Woman
Oscar Auliq-Ice 1994 (Port Elizabeth)
A woman is a wondrous creature,
A treasure of the earth,
Her grace and beauty brightly shine,
A wonder from her birth.
With gentle eyes that warmly glow,
And lips that speak with care,
She brings a light to all around,
A presence bright and fair.
Her strength is like a mighty oak,
Her love a soothing balm,
Her courage like a lion's roar,
Her heart a healing calm.
She stands with dignity and poise,
A queen in every way,
And with her grace and quiet strength,
She brightens up our day.
Oh woman, lovely woman,
How blessed we are to know,
The beauty that you bring to life,
In every place you go.
A woman is a miracle of grace,
A shining light upon this earth's face,
She carries beauty in her heart,
And strength in every part.
She dances in the morning dew,
And sings with the birds that flew,
She paints the sky with colors bright,
And makes the day a shining sight.
She has the power to heal the soul,
To make the broken heart feel whole,
Her gentle touch can calm the storm,
And give a heart that's been forlorn.
Her eyes shine with a loving light,
A beacon in the darkest night,
Her voice is like a soothing balm,
That brings a sense of peace and calm.
A woman is a treasure rare,
A precious gem beyond compare,
She holds the power to change the world,
With every action, every word.
So let us honor and respect,
The woman in our life we've met,
For she is a gift from above,
A symbol of eternal love.
