Women Of Substance Poem by John Sensele

Women of substance sink no lance in anyone's back
Women of substance in every circumstance portray the truth
Women of substance their don't hack
Women of substance loathe folks that veer towards the uncouth.

Women of substance tell the story of their lives in one version
Women of substance walk the narrow and straight path
Women of substance obey their conscience in every decision
Women of substance don't dislike Math.

Women of substance live by their very word
Women of substance don't public and secret lives
Women of substance when it matters demand to be heard
Women of substance sometimes cut tomatoes and onions with knives.

Women of substance honor promises and vows
Women of substance loathe forked tongues
Women of substance in their kraal nurture cows
Women of substance in their tubs use synthetic bungs.

Women of substance by lifestyles build a rising reputation
Women of substance advance boundaries of clean relationships
Women of substance promote conciliation and reconciliation
Women of substance don't jump on relationship sinking ships.

Women of substance don't divert from their professed venues
Women of substance don't play the field
Women of substance don't attract sleazy news
Women of substance to their men are a blessed shield.
