Women Poems

Katherine said, but her actions betrayed…
Was beauty the means of her wedded dismay?
Or was plainness her reason to be mistress?
Women! Rise beyond what's always been professed!

Men
may choose
partners
for their looks,
as "trophy wives";
few would choose "plain Janes" to marry:
ironically, this may turn out their loss,
for, as our Miss Hepburn says, "Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do."

Out of the golden gates,
there rode mounted knights of the king's guard,
To the left flank and the right flank they formed ranks,
the infantry as the centre,
The infantry still forming, shining no more were they,
midnight sun was being cloaked by darkness,
Once...Read More

So much respect
So much, so clear to see.
A surprise that made a day perfect
A surprise that was a joy to see.

An embrace. 
Two friends in time did meet.
Years fly by. 
Lives play out their games on different 
fields

Special people are...Read More

Standing across the street she would always pray the rosary
In the cold, rain and heat, among the bustle, there she would be
Women would come and women would go, but there she just prayed
A daily continuous flow, as on this woman's...Read More

Blood Clot and Boycott

Rather than crossing lines and boycott,
We did have a drink  called blood clot,
And then hardened;
From jail pardoned;
After we would finish it, hit the spot.

EarthMother's unwilling Emissary
asked each faith community
and patriotic party
what they thought and felt
about God's preferential option for the poor,
despised,
criminal,
homeless,
wounded and powerless women and children,
physical disabilities,
sick,
terrified,
rabid with anger and fear,
enslaved,
addicted,
insane.

Does this sound like an accurate description
of your congregation,
your self-empowering party,
your communion of...Read More

I look at my words.
Are you the best?
Not yet.
But soon.
They begin square dancing in my brain.
Twirling and laughing.
Their skirts flaring out.
Grabbed up by their partners.
Swung in the air.
I see panties and I laugh.
Reminds me of simpler times
When old women danced...Read More

For the last time they all wanted to meet
him to share their thoughts, feelings; he heard them
patiently and bid good-bye to each.
Asked them to leave, as he desired to stay lone;
They left except two associates with tears for their beloved.

Different we are
Blondes are mistaken 
for bimbos
Some men like bimbos
Women are feisty
Men also like feisty
Women with spunk
But in the end
Men and women like
The Chase

Dog vs man.

I trust a dog over a man.

A dog is always happy to see
You after work.
A dog is always waiting for you
At the door.
A dog is always waiting to give you a kiss.

A man is playing games 
A man...Read More

Purple Heart

It's what freedom cost,
Yet another family's lost.

Traces of a long forgotten war,
Willing participants to their own accord.

A coffin's flag to a son who gave his life,
So unafraid to die for the right.

Unspoken words echoes in silent action,
A sympathy for...Read More

He's only a man
I am a patient woman;
With no more emotional pain
If I want your heart to gain;
I love you for tomorrow
And leave you without sorrow;
I give you only love and bliss
I also seduce you with a French kiss.

"Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do."
-Katherine Hepburn

Plain and beautiful are seen though the eyes
Beauty touches the body Plain touches the soul
Beauty turns old while plain is ever lasting yet both
Can touch a heart if one of the...Read More

The Perfect Day


I believe I lived the perfect day, the ideal greatest day,
A day awash in a sunlit brilliance unseen since the first blink of Eden,
A day as buoyant as time standing resolutely still in the cool zephyrs-
A rarified floating...Read More

We watch as the men wreck the planet.
Why can't we just tell them to can it?
Earth would be so cool
if dudes didn't rule
and only the womenfolk ran it.

Silly thoughts are a 
mans best friend
How they embarrass 
themself without end
Falling all over 
themself you see
Leave us all laughing 
with glee
Foolish at times how 
they speak
Clamoring for some 
attention they seek
Leave us to just shake
 our heads
When to women...Read More

A ray of Hope, glimmer of smile,
To gently guide us as we walk that mile.
Each woman here has nothing to prove, Everyone has walked the same shoes. 

Each little baby step,
goes a long way, 
to create a better future,
and brighten...Read More

Shine on most brilliantly my bold, brave lass
Whine no more over misgiving's past
White robe awaits after crucible's blast.
Write of your struggles to all whom this life batters
Trite experiences included, for your testimony matters.

Not all women all victims of assault.
Some couples have moment of weakness, and are at fault.
Abortion is something worse than cruel.
To God all life, is a precious jewel.
No doubt, nor exception, all life beings at the moment of conception.
No doubt,...Read More

Women rise not only when needed but when noticing
Things need to be changed, 
Wanting more fairness, more community, 
Inspired by hope, and joy, 
Wanting to better the future for their children's children

Women take the lead when pushed by feelings,
Knowing they...Read More
