A black woman is a woman of the earth,
Born into a life of manual toil,
She wakes up every day to feed her family with a strength that is truly astounding,
She plants the seeds, she tends the land,
Short, tall, thick, small, all of them are so beautiful,
Intuitive and gifted, these are virtuous women,
Slaying women on their farmlands,
Telling tales of other Agro women,
Of how farming is improving a lot of women,
So here’s to women in agriculture,
Her hussle every day to feed the nation,
She knows living a life on the farm is a life of soil,
She watches her seeds grow with joy and pain.
So here’s to farming women who love to farm,
May our crops be bountiful and bright every season,
May we eat the fruit of our labour,
As our hands are seeds of vital life!
I salute you! Awesome Women!
Agriculture keeps us all alive.
May we have a bountiful table in our homes,
Remember to thank a farmer, when you eat her food
Happy Women's Day!
