»Take The Bull By The Horns«

by Christopher Kudyahakudadirwe

Welcome, woman, to your poem
Woman, daughter of Eve, welcome!
These words are for you, woman,
Mother of man, wife of man
Comforter of all teary souls
And all terribly troubled hearts.
You, woman, the seedbed
Of all humanity, rejoice;
The world today belongs to you
You are the future solution
To the ills of today's mankind.
Get up, woman, your day is here
Waiting to be lived by you
Shake off those shackles
That make you subservient.
Go out there and empower yourself.
Cut off the bondages of tradition
Dorn on your fearless feminism
And take the horns by the bull.
Welcome, daughter of Eve,
To your poem this August!
