A Special Woman Poem by Gerry Legister

A Special Woman



Diamonds formed from the wounds of jewel
The warmest charms tip scales in every duel.
Honor comes before the sapling pains hurt,
Others will tell you of your values and worth.
Recount virtues in great servitude of good,
Among heroics where all the watchers stood.
You take humble place facing the lordly race,
Reaching out for peace in earthly bleak space.
You try to heal the nonstop bleeding of errors,
Dripping from the pendulum of mistaken oasis
Waves create the fluttering butterfly of fantasy,
Set the lost world on course to future destiny.
The spotless bride dream of heaven from inside,
With lifeboat emotions running high and wide.
You embrace reality that truly defines intuition,
Only special woman can write the wrong of men.
Within the balm of feathered fractured wings,
The surprise tastes of paradise first underlings,
Change cold terrain for warm places in the Ark,
Out into piercing eyes of beauty, humanity walk.
New horizons awaken the realms of special make,
That femininity could not be Clone or replicate,
Almost unrelated, capacity was shy and fated,
Inequalities heaven rated, the dregs hell wanted.
You are a special woman of passionate means,
The missing beat wandering from masculine reins.
It was a clear summon the first sermon we hear
From sunrise dew to the silhouette evening star.
The diamond robe wore only glaze the faded skin,
When years and tears pass no insecurity can ruin.
Personalities that made your character strong,
Those outstanding sum we may never understand.
But humanity is grateful for the beacon of light
In a world of darkness, ambush by fear and fright.
Life is short with split connection to our dream,
The vision seen, is in a gleaming impossible stream.
Narrowly swimming with goals that lie in-between.
Touching lives here on earth and up in heaven
