Notes About The Poem

Crystol Wood's Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder Contest...10 Aug 25 *XXL-- extra extra large ( size of a person's body-frame)

XXL Is Beautiful

XXL women may not be limelight’s bet
But golly, we're blue chips in the market.
Guy buddies say they like plus- figures more,
Because there is punk in us to explore.
Media buzz makes flat models look so grand
It's annoying to  think they are in command;
Oprah, Latifah weigh two hundred pounds
Plus- sized kind of beauty walks on awed grounds.
Who needs a lipo; do not get depressed,
At times when nothing fits as you get dressed
Just remember one thing, my natural ones
Tons of men relish our charm and round buns!

We need to work to get healthy, but still we can be beautiful!

Delightful, upbeat poem and great contest entry. XXL women need acceptance and notoriety just like everyone else. Have a pleasant week ahead.
