The Mirror My Sun


"The Mirror My Sun"



Women 
shining like beacons
true POWERFUL ones
they sit high
never the moon 
they are the SUN 
in you 
they live forever 
they never die

hi Leanne Awesome poetry with a beautiful message for women in special and men in general. I also like your reply to Arturo"Respect for WOMAN, there lies within, the respect for MAN." One more thing, in my poem "The real winner" you write " unique and distinction" how do you know that.i am really grateful for that. I also like the meaning of your name and this poem matches that meaning" "the most gorgeous of girls. She is a very determined person and wont stop until she gets what she wants."

Hi Leanne Thanks for your lovely comments. I now live in Middle East, here people like to call me by my first Name which is muhammad which means the most lovely and most praised. and imtiaz meaning you already know. i love my name ..........and i feel my self different from others because people tell me everytime that you are different from normal. So i like to find people who are different ...so that is why i like your poetry , style and name also... Thanks and blessings of God on you and your family

When I read poems here, I usually read the comments in response to poems. I noticed Silent One referred to you as Imtiaz. I had called you Muhammad and I was concerned in doing that through.ignorance that could be offensive. I would like to apologise if it was and is Imtiaz the name people know you by? Then I looked up the meaning of your name and was pleasantly surprised. Wise choice your mother and father made with name choice for you.

True. Thumbs up. All women have it in them from birth, the strength to continue to love and survive, even if they are not aware of their own power. Some need a hands up when they fall, shine a little light for my sisters here and out there, and for my daughter. Eventually they find they're true power and embrace it. This is a message for men as well. Respect for WOMAN, there lies within, the respect for MAN. This FREEDOM VERSE for the true WOMEN who stand next to other women and hold them up and walk with them towards LIGHT.
