Happy day to all women!



Woman

The ways of life
become colourful
when your presence appears
and fills them with light.
The smile of your lips
draws the hope
sprinkling with gaiety
the sad faces.
The shine of your look
attracts dreams
like stars do it
in the bright sky.
The caresses of your hands
have the softness
of rose petals
in spring gardens.
The perfume of your love
spreads in the air
relieving the pain
of lonely souls.
The warm shades
of your infinite sweetness
mix with the letters
of the magic word "woman".
