When Men Utter

I shudder when men utter that a woman's without plan
Or hint she'd be much better if she stayed behind a man.
They prance their dance and gloat about the muscles that it took
To build a life and call her wife without a moments look.

They fail to see the wisdom that was placed before the bands
That gently strokes the living yolks then sees through man's demands.
They'll stand alone without a page of wisdom in their book;
They missed the beauty that was placed, yes graced their table nook.
