Linda Napoli Poems

The Best Poem Of Linda Napoli

Women

Women of old- lifting the load;
carrying, gathering, threshing,
kneading, nursing, sewing.
Bearing the burdens, bent, with child,
Reaching forward, one more step, fearful,
brave.

Mothers, daughters, sisters, wives,
living their lives- chased, chaste.
Forward one more step- seeking, waiting.

Women of new times- racing, pacing.
Shaking free from toil, drudgery left behind
Gold, freedom ahead- searching ever higher
Searching for their center, fearful, brave
waiting.

Knowing not for what, the secret hidden.
