Only a woman can

BY LOUJAYA TONI

He looked
But didn’t see
Because he used his eyes
And not
His heart;

He heard but didn’t listen
He had been carried as a load
But had never carried a load;

The trouble with his leadership was
He’s too busy looking for gain
She carried his pain
His people
He heard their petition
But he failed to hear their cry
Only a woman can do both;

She mastered it
whilst giving birth she nurtured life
she looked and saw
with her eyes and her heart
she heard and listened to
the unborn
the birthed one
to tell the difference between a sigh and a cry
Only a woman can;

She’s the radar in a man’s seeing, being and doing
Without her
He can drift till kingdom come
She’s the anchor
Come to terms with it
Some … things … only
A WOMAN CAN!

Sooo true!
Behind every good man there is a good woman- somewhere.
The sooner PNG can get more women in the government the better.
