Woman

“Men themselves have wondered   
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,   
They say they still can’t see.   
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,   
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.”
-from Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

Femininity

by Carmen H Gray

Curves in motion

Soft waves

In the undulating sea

Circles spiraling

Triangular mystery

Ballads and songs

Carefully crafted

Throughout history

For the life-giving

Beauty of femininity
