Adept

I am adept at many things My world revolves, nay sings Multitasking, juggling work and home Aye I am a woman lo and behold Not superwoman, not underestimated For I am almost always understated With a bounce in my step and a smile on my lips I play with my kids as I balance their meals Office and home are both my forte For I cannot do just naught Simplistic and altruistic Not a sought after mystic My life and my dreams Just bursts at its seams! I am woman, nothing is impossible I speak for one, yet I speak for all Sauntering with me is just not fun I run to and fro, until my day is done Each night when I lay down to sleep I pray for the Almighty my strength to keep For I am woman, soft and gentle With a heart of gold, and oh so sentimental I am adept at many things My world revolves, nay sings

Love the "For I am almost always understated ..." Well, almost ... LOL ... except when I'm being loud and obnoxious which I have a tendency to get away with at 66 years of age ... it has its advantages ... smile Another thought provoking write from you, Fathima ... thank you for this one!
