A woman is...

the one who woos men...

(...and of course... men  too woo women ! )

a mystery...or a (Miss ) Tree with no shade

or a tree of mysteries

or a solace to the tired wanderer

or a 'shoe-lace' to the fancy and foot loose !

A woman is a mother and a friend...

but can smother and be a fiend !

A woman is the best thing that can happen to a man...

but a woman can also make a man hapless ... Oh Man !!!
