I am WOMAN
16 September 2014
You look to me for a common standpoint
A vague throbbing ghost of what I should feel
A hushed stance you’ll like lest I disappoint
With my own views so fierce and yet so real
I am none certain yet clear in my mind
For unworthy I’ll stand no reference
I will walk neither in front nor behind
From this mine stillness make no inference
I am clear water in the muddy reef
I am its coral and its beating heart
I turn in many lives a renewed leaf
Forever is your end and is my start
I am WOMAN and hold this gift up high
Seek not this power for me to forsake
Free will a will so free may not deny
So will your will my will thus stand to break?
Hi,

Actually my own name was originally Gita. Thank you for your kind words. I have only published a french poetry book and not a story although I had been asked to do so once.
