More then just a woman.

Poem Commentary

I wrote this for a woman, I love, admire, cheerish, and respect. I also believe, this is how woman should be looked at.

More then just a woman.

"More then just a woman."

Iam strong, Iam smart. Iam full of truth and heart.

Iam tough, Iam shy, I can be both, in a blink of an eye.

Iam woman, that is true. Iam wonderful, through and through.

I give life, I give love, Iam teacher, Iam learner, Iam mother, Iam daughter, I can be wild, I can be a child, Iam all of the above.

Iam confident, Iam self aware, Iam not afraid, to show I care.

I can be weak, I can be brave, through a mighty storm, my boat can sail any wave.

I am woman.

I can be beautiful, with or without make-up. I can stay together, even when inside, Im breaking up.

I can work, as hard as any man. I should not be look at, less than.

I can walk tall, I should not be treated, like Im small. I can be one of the guys, I should be told the truth and never lies.

I have brains, above my chest. To look me straight in the eyes, would be best.

I can be independent, I can hold my own. But when I need help, answer my call, to help hold my sail, when the wind is fiercely blown.

Iam woman. And Just like every one else, Iam human. I have the same rights as a man, of all this, that shouldn't be hard to understand.

My smile can be beautiful, my anger can be spiteful. I should be treated with respect, I should always be loved and never treated with neglect.

I should be treated with affection and never as a possession.

If you love me, show it. I should be hugged, never hit. And don't think because Im female, that I have a lower wit.

Iam;

W-onderful

O-ut spoken

M-ore than just my sex

A-ffectionate

N-ever to be taken for granted


Iam woman and proud to be me.

This piece tells it like it is with both barrels from the hip—Bravo!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
