Walayee Poet Lay Whitlock-Ishway Poet Free verse

I Am - All Woman

~ Who am I ~

The epitome of independent ~

definition of pain ~ despair ~ heartache ~ love ~ loss ~

and undeniable strength and triumph through it all. ~

Never been perfect and don't want to be ~

Who I am is okay with me. ~


~ Who I am ~

Complicated ~ Strong Willed ~ Aggressive ~ Blunt ~

Honest ~ Open minded ~ Driven ~ Self-Motivated ~

Optimistic ~ Beautiful ~ Loving ~ Eloquent ~ 

Poetic ~ and Free...


~ I am All Woman ~

open your eyes, mind, and heart ~

Only then will you see ~

All this woman ~

all of me...

Lay

Carolyn Devonshire April 29, 2011 at 7:59 AM I bet this describes you perfectly, Lay. There are a lot of free-spirited, independent ladies that men don't understand. Can relate to this message. My late husband used to complain that I was so gosh-darned independent. Still smile thinking of it; he was used to women being very dependent. Nice to see you posting again. Love, Carolyn
