The Power Of A Woman Poem by Blessing Ekpe

The Power Of A Woman

Rating: 4.9


She is the queen of the new day

Definition of beauty is in her being

Her skin is polish with gracefulness

Eyes as beautiful as doves by a flowing brook

wet lips like lilies in a secret garden

Her things are bronzed and smooth capable to cure a sick man

As a raven is a long wavy hair adoring her shoulder

her steps are majestic in view like the Lebanon mountains

as dazzling as the sun is her smile

Her glance is like the dawn

As intoxicating as strong wine is the fragrant from her armpits

her breast like the fragrance of apples

she is as graceful as a palm tree

She owns the world by the power within her

kings and princes bow and trembling at her shadow

Yippee! I marvel at this poem as encharmed by the truth and flow of thoughts in the poem. More than anything-else I like these ethereal lines of the this poem...... 'she is as graceful as a palm tree She owns the world by the power within her kings and princes bow and trembling at her shadow: I think you can wrought a wonder in the lives of people by your poetry just like Mahatma Gandhi and Mandela did with racism. Great going............Hearty congratulations to the poetess...................

A THING OF BEAUTY IS A JOY FOR EVER - John Keats. Women get their power from the inherent desire of men to please their lovers. A lovely poem well articulated and written with insight to capture the essence of the piece and the poet's conviction. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
