' A GOOD WOMAN'


A GOOD WOMAN IS NOT JUST SUGAR AND SPICE AND ALL THAT'S NICE.
SHE IS SOMEONE YOU CAN TALK TO IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE NIGHT.
A GOOD WOMAN IS SOMEONE YOU CAN RELY ON.SHE IS NOT SELFISH,
OR SELF CENTERED,SHE IS ALWAYS WILLING TO GIVE. SHE MAKES
THINGS WITH HER HANDS. HER HUSBAND IS PROUD OF HER, AND
OFTEN SPEAKS OF HER WHEN HE TALKS TO OTHERS.A GOOD WOMAN
IS SOMETIMES A NURSE, WHOSE UP WITH YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
NIGHT. SHE IS ALSO A MOTHER WHO WIPE AWAY THOSE TEARS WE
SHED. A GOOD WOMAN IS A MAID,WHO TAKES CARE OF OUR HOME, SHE'S A COOK, TEACHER, BAKER, BARBER, THE GREATEST ACTRESS IN ALL THE WORLD. WITHOUT A GOOD WOMAN , WHERE WOULD A MAN BE ???
