A Woman

I wrote this poem after reading a poem titled, 'I'm glad I'm a Man'.

A Women

I'm glad I'm a woman, don't mind if I say

Feeling free to express my feelings each day

I feel no need to knock your masculinity

to secure more confidence in my own femininity

When I feel blue my friends lend an ear

Feel better now, after shedding a tear

Like to be happy, don't like to be blue

Sharing life's pleasures

is what best I do

I like to dress up and go shopping for clothes

The sound of a bird and the smell of a rose

The theatre, an opera, a musical show

Celebrate friendship, wherever we go

Don't mind when you write about being a man

Say you're a baseball and hockey sports fan

But when you start talking about women like you do

I'm glad I'm woman, not a redneck like you!
