Women who seek equality with men are not setting their standards very high


I have just discovered freedom
in the changing of the season,
No-one tells the leaves to stay green,
And they’re as brown as they’ve ever been.

In the birth of a May blossom
I have just discovered freedom.
As its petals burst out and through,
And it stands tall for me and you.

When the sunlight shines down on me,
Within its bright rays I can see,
I have just discovered freedom-
The sun never needs a reason.

I think that the best example
is the sea with freedom ample.
Quickly! Hurry! Over here! Come!
I have just discovered freedom.
