~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!

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

I really love the simple message in this and how you stretched it in so many different ways. It's comforting to know that we can be any type of woman we want, but as long as we stay true to who we are. Let our personality and dreams guide us in the right direction. It doesn't matter who we are, but as long as we know ourselves both inside and out. Splendid write :)

This poem hones an excellent rhythmic quality, and soft cadence that takes the reader quickly into the moment- and then takes them back out again . . . like having a little bit of the sun that whiffs by for but a moment of our lifetime. Very nicely done. Mesmerizing.
