I am woman. I know how to please myself, I can. And less important, I know what it takes to please a man. I am woman. I dream. I live. I love. I smile. I laugh. I give. I will talk to you all night long and listen to your voice. I will help guide you in trial when you are brinking on a choice. I am woman and I walk with diamonds between my thighs and I know why the caged bird sings, because you'll never hear its cries. I am woman and I am strong because I am forced to be, I sing both harmony and melody and you'll never stop loving me. I am woman. |

Nice poem. I especially liked this part: "...and I know why the caged bird sings, because you'll never hear its cries." |

Wow! What a woman you are too. Bravo, I liked your self assurance and how you coined yourself with poetic justice. "with diamonds between my thighs" Great! Hugs Kimberly
