Better Late Than Never 

We celebrate women today
Because back then, they weren’t celebrated in any way
They were treated unfairly, different from men
They did so much, but then …

They still were treated unequally, it wasn’t fair!
So, they marched and marched, as they dare

People saw the issue and sought help
They kept marching … and, welp …

The women were free to do whatever
But til this day, women are still under the weather
They are still paid little, more about
Someone has to do something, this isn’t allowed!
But as I always say, you’ll see one day

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
