What do you think this poem is about?

a gift...

whoever said
tears spell a woman weak?

it's her way to gain
more strength
emptying out
the unwanted stuff
don't we batheto feel relaxed?

yes, i do have tears abundant
yes, i do have laughter in loads
yes, spirituality springs from me
as from anyone else
i'm softpowerful and practical

yes, in pride i say
i'm a gift and it's not my bother
if you fail to recognize my worth!

    I see your point! if there is someone who tells you what women tear would be like next time, answer like this. you are as feminine as I am. it is okay, you can cry I hate people who tend to solve any mystery for gender stuff. crying is just a part of human beings.

    Just wanted to say this poem is a gift and ty for sharing. All woman should be inspired by this. Sometimes I forget my self worth and reading is just a reminder. No matter what struggles woman go through, no matter what people may say....as long as woman know their own self worth... I believe woman would be a lot happier in life. Everyone should know their self worth and not listen anyone else.....thats my option anyways =) wonderful, wonderful poem.

    Tears of sadness, tears of joy, loss, remembrance.
    They help wash the soul. Good poem and strong write,

    A great thought in this poem to know our own self worth before others can know it.
