Depth Of A Woman Poem by Courtney Kane
Depth Of A Woman
there is depth in me that is
much like the sea
and on days of my greatest gleam
i am the woman who manages
what some may say is the impossible
a son, a daughter, i have them all
and nothing prevents me from
keeping them calm, in great winds,
in the roughest rain,
the sight of my eyes, the searing pain
of life's hard road,
it all bulds to a glorious strength,
the strength of the women before me,
it is the depth of a worldly woman.
I like the way you made everyone before you was as important as the ones after...good job!
l like your poem, it gives the feeling of honour, and strength. Interesting way, you have styled your words.
Hi Courtney! I have a similar request as Anna below. We would like to know the possibility of licensing or commissioning your work. Please contact me at greg at yardnyc dot com. Thanks!
Courtney, my women's chorus is commissioning a choral piece, and the composer is interested in working with Depth of a Woman. We need your permission, though, and VERY quickly- like by Friday (December 15,2017) . You can reach me at amspeicher[at]northpark.edu.
Well done this is a really nice poem. Well done to all the powerfull and deep women out there! I hope to become one x-x-x
This is a particularly beautiful poem. The use of occassional rhyme works very well. The idea of the poem is great, I wonder if the sea simile could not be exorcised in favour of something else that suggests, profoundness.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem

I love the sea...I swim and surf in it, so I waded into this one to find it less than ankle deep my sweet.
