Listen to poem:

Masculinity - My Animus Though female, animus dwells deep in me with strengths of leadership and business sense, in being ruled by productivity in ways that show command without pretense. Assertiveness, decisiveness occurs within the realm of varied business skills where mathematics flair robustly stirs accounting chores, like income taxes, bills. Supportive instincts move within my soul, the need to organize and plan with care. Investment and financial smart control, with honed computer skills, help me prepare. A steady love of deep protective kind that speaks commitment and strong loyalty, focused attentiveness, resolve combined; these are the traits of animus in me. My animus serves well on business side. My anima, artistic gifts provide. Sandra M. Haight ~Honorable Mention~ Contest: Animus-Anima Part II--Animus Sponsor: Tom Quigley Judged: 06/26/2016

We went with the same basic premise, but different forms and descriptive lines, so the same, but not the same. I like yours very much and you always rock iambic pentameter! Definitely a winner in my opinion. All the best ... CayCay
