The Fairer Sex - Xx

It’s very hard for someone to define exactly what a woman is, for there are things today that cause folks to decline from speaking out about the sex more “fair.” More women show impartiality more often than do men - a proven fact, while men are prone more to brutality, but with compassion girls more often act. The feminists will hate this, but I say that motherhood is better suited for the female, for God fashioned her that way through chromosomes and at her spirit's core. A woman is God’s precious work of art because she molds the future with her heart. April 11, 2022 (Of course there are always exceptions to the rule, but I have found these thoughts of mine generally to be true; obviously a woman is born with "parts" and other types of aspects that make her different from a man, but I did not want to focus on every single thing) For Anthony Biaanco's U Choose Poetry Contest: Theme #1: Define a woman

Hi Andrea, an enjoyable poem from start to finish, great explanation of how and what we are, but I guess we are also complicated and confusing sometimes . Very well penned, best wishes for the contest my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer

Another excellent work of art from Soup's sonneteer. A challenging subject to tackle but you handled it with grace and aplomb. I always love your careful attention to meter, rhyme, and enjambment; I especially love the ending, "she molds the future with her heart". Well done, my friend.

Andrea, Such a fine perspective in true strength in will and respect for womenhood. They're all gifts, use them as you may. Your gifts definately not limited to your words put to a poem's page. -Richard

A cliche that no one understands a woman. But I love the idea of a good mother who takes care of her offspring. Best for a win. HUgs.

Nice try, but after millennia, women are still a mystery to women! Isn't that an accomplishment worth celebrating?

Andrea, you did a superb job with this. I'm not sure I want to undertake this one, but if I do, it will be this subject, because I couldn't relate to any of the others. Nice writing.

I felt the same. Of all the topics, this was the only one I felt I could address.
