Ode 2 Woman

Is it the complexity of your hair?

Twisted, Loc’d, Curly, Braids?

Yeah even a fade

Maybe it’s the spark in your eyes

That leaves me mesmerized

Or is it the curve of your mouth?

Smile for me please, mmhm that’s what I thought

It could be that tat on your neck or the one that’s centered chest

The slope of your breast, waiting to be caressed

Maybe the feel of your belly…

Taunt, flat, or squishy like jelly

Wait, it’s the curve of your hips

Now I’m feigning for some double dip

Is it your womanhood?

How it opens & blossoms as it should

Or is it your inner thigh?

I’m hypnotized…

Could it be the bend of your knees?

Making me eager to please

I know! It’s the bold & unapologetic nature of your design

Intertwined with an ambitious driven mind

Pure beauty inside and out that’s rare to find

Courageous & unwavering in efforts to love

Standing proud & strong in her truth’s

In an assortment of shapes, colors, height

And ethnicities

A woman is what I’m blessed to be

Yeah I’m new to the stage, ready to turn the page

I’ve sat dormant locked into conforming

To societal ways

All of my excuses became a maze

Now all I want to do every single day

Is give woman praise.
