Powerful Woman women have a power it is an amazing gift even when their hearts are broken their arms are strong enough to lift to carry you through sorrow yes, each and every pain absorbing all your hurts and by your side to still remain they will forgive you when the world on you has turned it’s back see right to the core of you and not what you lack take you from the pit of hell to return you to your feet when they have lost a battle don’t see it as total defeat they are magnets when your problems grip and make you want to run away bring you back home again when you have lost your way toils hard right by your side and at times works all alone showing you it’s not a place but a feeling that makes you home then tenderly at the end of your day will gently rock you to sleep today kiss her and thank her this powerful woman and in her heart YOU she will always keep "The heart is the toughest part of the body, tenderness is in the hands."

Great write Helen. The strongest woman I ever knew was my mother, and she was all this and more. I sometimes wondered at the strength she found when life would knock her down. Oh, and by the way Dunc, love you too…from the erfkad Everything is possible in the game of life (Simple Minds-Promised You a Miracle) [This message has been edited by Tracey (05-29-2002 07:31 AM).] |
