I Am Virgo

I AM VIRGO Remember the girl at the Convent who started The peanut butter strike Because she thought it was right? Remember in dual heritage Where, this now woman mentions That her British side is Somewhat obstinate? Well if I am of dual decent, I am two Virgo’s in one, That makes up the sum Of me! And almost always, These two Virgos Never agree! They clash, And are both brash, I step back Waiting for them To work it out, Just now they will come To blows and one will Knock the other out! The Greek gets heated, And the English, Sometimes defeated, And then it’s repeated, Until both, feel depleted. I have a splitting headache, For they are always present I tell them to stop, This is my life, I am the Virgo wife , And will be until I die, So behave and please Don’t make me cry! Can’t face untidiness around, As I am bound To take strain, If I see dust or a small stain. But my poetry corner Is quite another thing, That is where I have an Absolute bling fling! I don’t suffer fools lightly Says the Greek Virgo, But tell them politely, Says the English Virgo! There they are again In my head, I’m treading a fine line, To keep them in this rhyme! I Love to keep a warm, Loving home, I am a caring mother and wife Who always carry’s her phone. I feel fiercely, about everything, It’s just my way, I Emphatically insist that the family, All have an equal say! Both English and Greek Virgos Agree with this, And hug and give each Other a kiss. The Greek Virgo sings, Love must be felt from the start, And the English one adds, Like a spear piercing your heart, Wonderful, we finally agree, that I am both a Greek and English Virgo, Which is the total sum of me!

Virgo's are the best! Well written poem about being a Virgo. I'm a "pavement special", I have Irish, Spanish and Portugese blood running in me, but...... I'm just a Virgo. Kim Loved how Besma responded to your poem . "I am Virgo too"....beautifully carried on about Virgo. Well done Besma. Kim

Well, you certainly make the case for having an internal debate before taking action in some things. The wise ones know when this is required and when we are able to do things instinctively because it is how we have been raised. You are indeed one of the wise. The way you put this all together is making me smile right now. So, how about that? I love to smile, and you have given me a great love!!

Hi Duke, Thank you for such a wonderful and complimentary comment you have sent to me across the miles! Smiling and love go hand in hand so wow, again I feel so grand that I am the instigator of both through my poem. All your poems are wise Duke, I soak them in as I read them. be well and best wishes, kindest regards, Jennifer.

this is SO CoOL. Of course, if I am into numerology I am into astrology too. Guess what? I too am Virgo!! But I am a messy Virgo who can't keep a super tidy house. It must be the Taurus in me or something. (or my fives!) I enjoyed your poem so much.

Oh how awesome - I love all Virgo's - I think my subconsciousness most have homed in on you! Hope more Virgo's see this poem. Great that you are into numerology (or your fives), could you when you have time soupmail me how you do this, I think you explained in one of your comments or poems. Glad you enjoyed my poem and so happy we are now communicating! Special xoxo, Jennifer.

My Mom was Virgo, my hairderssor is Virgo, my daughter in law is virgo, her mother is virgo and one of our employees is Virgo - I am surrounded by Virgos! It is difficult having two Virgos living under one roof though! Special xoxo, Jennifer

Sounds like there's a war going on, you'll have to call a truce and reach a compromise. Enjoy the weekend. Tom.

Mind and logic are her masters.. loyalty and beauty of soul.. a passionate giver.. wow, dear Jennifer! You have beautifully and genuinely unveiled the beauty of your soul! No wonder! I am Virgo too! Souls of same frequency! My delight.. love and hugs dearest.

Hi Besma - Oh I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy that you are Virgo also! You, me and Andrea. We are givers of ourselves and think of others before ourselves, we come last! Is your birthday in August or September. As for being perfectionists, perhaps sometimes we overwhelm people, I know I do! xoxo and much more love, Jennifer.
