WOMAN.
O woman, in your hours of ease, Uncertain, coy and hard to please, We’ve all been held across your knees. When your hand felt like a swarm of bees, But what of that ? We love you still, And what is more, we always will! Wear what you may, do as you like, Hold offices, and ride the bike. Be married if it please you to, Yet nothing that you e’er can do Will make you proof against the charms That come, when, yielding to man’s arms Love steals into your heart! Ah, then You’re just sweet woman once again !
