Poems to celebrate International Women's Day, written by Ayesha Newsam and Kathy Tytler at the monthly Sun Poets Poetry Group. 

Haikus

Man holds door for girl
She eyes him, no gratitude

He welcomes her grace

She's prickly when harm strikes her
Soothed with glass of wine

By Ayshea Newsam and Kathy Tytler
