Breasts large or small, all the same,
Yet the delicacy of her frame,
And if her teeth are crooked or nose too long,
With that I see nothing wrong.
Crow’s feet or wrinkles in her skin,
Might make her all the more interesting.
But if in her eyes I can attain,
3 parts wisdom, 1 part pain,
And perhaps a glimmering of light,
A touch of a mischievous sprite,
And a warmth that says she’s true and human,
Here lies the beauty of a woman.

You know why I love the Sourcerer blog? Because it’s all about
networking and creating a community of bloggers. You know why else I love the Sourcerer blog? Because they published one of my poems yesterday!!
When I heard the Sourcerer blog was doing something called Feminist Fridays and were looking for author contributions, I was so eager to participate, I didn’t even pay attention to the fact that it was more about starting a discussion forum than featuring creative works. Never the less, those nice folks agreed to publish my poem. I am reblogging it today. I know it’s a little late for Feminist Friday, so let’s just say it’s Suffragette Saturday. Hope you enjoy!
Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your Feminist Fridays!
