God's Gift To Women Poem by Lora Colon
God's Gift To Women
How little I care for rubies and pearls,
Or the sparkle of a diamond ring,
But when a man speaks tender words of love,
These are the jewels that make my heart sing!
No matter the obstacles in my path,
Be they copious as stars above me;
All I ask is that at my journey's end
There'll be a man waiting to love me
Now I've heard women say in angry tones
When with their lover they have just tiffed:
'He thinks he's special, God's gift to women, '
Well, I think of each man as a gift
His lips, his arms, every part of a man
Are all treasures that women adore,
What else do we need on a stormy night,
Or when winter's winds howl at the door?
Yes, I see each man as a precious gift,
(Perhaps I'm being foolish) ..... yet still
I know of nothing more divine than love,
And a man's touch - an undefined thrill
With proper intent, I love every man!
(Forgive me if I seem indiscreet)
But God's wisdom shines in His grand design -
Without each other, we're incomplete
And when lonely nights prove unbearable,
We then see the glory of His plan:
Man will rush toward woman with arms outstretched -
For woman is also God's gift to man!
I really like this poem Lora. The fifth stanza though could be improved from a man's perspective (at least mine) ... So I see each man as a precious gift, No real man desires a life alone, We have but to choose the gift we like best, To win his heart, just open our own.
Your words are a nice variation to my poem. I like them. Let the reader substitute your words for mine if they choose. Thank you, Brian.
A lovely poem, with a lovely message. I do believe we are a gift to each other, especially when given freely and unconditionally. But I'm not so sure about 'I love every man, ' some of us are content with just one.
Darlene, this is why I start the stanza with the words With proper intent. The love I refer to in this line is the same as in Love thy neighbor. I am all for loving only one man at a time - preferably only one man for ALL time, with a special love that is reserved for him alone. This special love is too precious and sacred to be given frivolously. Just want you to know I agree with you - thanks for your comment.
U are soo right and awesome here msn and woman are mutual gifts and we complement each other and neef this other half. Thid is such a creative masterpiece and heartwarming to both sexes ah I laud u fellow poetess. Men are wonderful I agree, we need them for a flutter and flattering gallantry.kudos.
