A Woman is What You Need

For difficult jobs it's now often agreed
A woman is what you most definitely need,
One who is trained and has mountains of skills,
Has lived a full life and knows well all the drills,
Who'll never be fazed by the size of the job,
And isn't perturbed by the size of the mob
Which seeks to derail her and cause her to fail,
Often, too often, exclusively male.
It's not always true, but is correct as a rule,
A woman is less prone to losing her cool.
Women in general are far less inclined
To engage in behaviour that others might find
Embarrassing, stupid, perhaps just a tad
Infantile, crooked or otherwise mad
In someone whose image should always be seen
As trustworthy, sensible, definitely clean.
Women don't often see reason to brag,
Nor do they tend to tell stories and blag
Multi-tasking's a given; it's been part of their lives,
From time immemorial, and today still survives
Enabling most women to do several things,
The main task and others which lie in the wings.
In a crisis most women turn out to be strong,
They don't start to panic if something goes wrong.
By fame and large fortunes they're not much impressed,
Their vision's not clouded by a football team's best.
They're more of team players than bullies who try
To squash all their colleagues, so they can rise high.
So if you want someone to work and to lead,
A woman is possibly just what you need.
