Happy Women's Day


A woman is more 
than solely a woman,
She's nobody's 
but her own,
She embraces
 truth in life 
with compassion
 in her soul.

A woman is more 
than solely a woman,
There's ambition 
on her mind,
There is wisdom
 in her words
And foundations
 to be kind.

A woman is more
 than solely a woman,
There is beauty 
in her eyes,
And that beauty 
reflects journeys
Travelled through 
her inner light.

A woman is more
 than solely a woman,
There's a sweetness
 in her smile.
There's the instinct
 of a mother to protect 
each little child.

A woman is more 
than solely a woman,
She is humble, 
She'sincere.
She's a friend, 
she's a great listener,
Seeks adventure 
without fear.

A woman is more
 than solely a woman,
She thinks firstly
 with her heart,
She gives strength
 yet seeks protection,
She needs safe 
 comforting arms.

A woman is more 
than solely a woman,
Her secrets
 held unseen,
Like whispers
 in the quiet night,
Waiting for
 a curious dream.

A woman is more
 than solely a woman,
Sensual, elegant
and graceful like
 a vintage wine glass,
She's a timeless
 vineyard of passion,
A treasure born to last.

A woman is more 
than solely a woman,
She shakes stardust
 from the blues.
She's the lips
 of silent voices,
She's a Hepburn, 
She's a Lucille Ball wearing 
Mary Poppins' shoes.

8th of March-Happy Women's Day

Dedicated to All The Special Women Out there..

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style.

Be blessed.

Charmaine, a lovely tribute. As a man, I'm thinking how lucky I am to be in a society where women represent all these positive attributes. I think men can learn a lot from women, and we should respect and honor what you've detailed here. Hopefully, opportunity and equality will only get better and better for all. Your have me smiling!

Cute poem of female empowerment. I especially like that last line. Women shouldn't need a special day but sadly, in some cultures they aren't treated very well
