Daughters of Eve

EVE
You wield great power;
With your beauty sparkling as flower;
Your power is absolute;
But sons of your womb know not of such power so absolute!
Men have fought wars all because of women
Helen of Troy, Jezebel, Delilah, to mention but a few;
Eves, you are indeed the invisible hand of control!
Adams would fall always for you till the end of time...
But I beg of you, my Eves
Play not our hearts as toys, please
As our hearts are our only possessions
To make the differences the world need in our obsessions!
I besiege you, Eves, to exploit your power positively
And not cause mayhem as did Delilah negatively...
But as queen Esther, Deborah and Ruth of ancient Israel
