Woman Of Substance. Poem by Fay Slimm

Woman Of Substance.

Rating: 5.0


Her voracious energy
............................captured life.
She devoured days,
...................poetically climbed
The mountain of 'being',
..............................and thrived
On romance,
........being born to a new time
When expressions of love
...................became accepted,
Yet still in man's world,
..............soon scribed her way
And another fine classic
..........................she perfected,
Proving female persistence
.....................could win the day.

To women of substance
................thought had occured
That then was the time
.......their voice could be heard
