Time for Women Leaders

It really might be better if more women were in power,

With all their many talents which would have the chance to flower.

Men have been so long in charge, it’s now the women’s turn,

Especially as so many men have such a lot to learn

In running a successful state, at peace and not in debt,

Where poverty is something past, and people’s needs are met.

A woman leader can be good, for usually on the whole

They tend to bring more calmness and reflection to the role.

They’re not as quick to take offence, or seek to pick a fight,

And usually more compassionate to other people’s plight.

They’re used to juggling many things and keeping all in mind,

Ensuring all is up to date and nothing left behind.

Their powers to think things clearly is the same as any man’s

And many women have the strength a leader’s role demands.

How many changes might there be if women made up half,

Of all the leaders in the world, as well as female staff.
