~I Am

I am a fragrant lily

soft as morning dew,

 strength of mother lioness

    protecting her cubs

I am nonsense, clever,

   sensual & extravagant

I can make your day

   or break your heart

Take care of business,

   roar in the bedroom 

     appetizer in the galley   

I could raise your sun

  or blow your mind

Be your concubine

   or take control

I am tender inside

 and out

with a soul 

   of titanium

I bend but

don't break me

I am woman

in purest form

The true heart of a woman ... yes, a true woman.
I can make your day
or break your heart" are the lines which are captivating for me. I think it depends upon the personality of the man, huh! So don't dare to tease a woman. LOL.

Like it, Frieda. I salute this piece for women like us!

[Frieda P]

Grazie mille dhaye, ha, and so true my friend!

Your words encapsulate the strength and pride of woman, I love the power in this

[Tai Ryens]

I applaud the true essence of women shining brightly here, and that essence is the knowledge that a woman is more than society claims she is. As a strong feminist here: I have to say you've absolutely contributed well.

This makes me think of Peggy Lee purring and grinding "I am a woman - W O M A N" -- I love this. Anything that makes me remember Peggy Lee singing is a wonderful thing.

[Barbara Walker]

Oh, years ago, I played that song endlessly! So true! Women are so strong, in so many ways. If we harnessed our power, oh the changes we would make!
