Salt Of The Earth
Salt of the earth,
Whenceforth life springs and doesn't cut asunder,
If it weren't for the brine!
Who would i have been?

Light of the world,
You illuminate the darkest paths,
If it weren't for your expressions;
Would I be spectacular?

Flavor of the universe,
Thou hast nurtured me with so much affections,
If it weren't for your tenderness,
Would 'em butterflies ever come alive?

Fluffy and flossy is what i remember of your ebony bosom,
Where I take solace whenever my heart aches,
While you reciprocate with a blossoming smile,
If it weren't for your graciousness,
Would life be meaningful?

Imagine the world without women,
Howbeit, it's going to be a boring and stereotyped one,
For the women are the salt of the earth.

Salt of the earth,
You're God's greatest gift to mankind.
