Renaissance woman, voluptuous, pleasantly plump, full figured,
cubby or fat?
Or may be politically correct
Is where it’s at…
Obese? ‘Wow’ is that really a word?
Not a kind verbalization I find it absurd!
Don't try to describe me with one or two words!
The intellectually challenged,
These shallow depictions may continue.
I think your title should come from within you.
So let’s begin under the skin.
I’M NOT JUST A WOMAN OF SIZE!
I'm tender, I'm a mother, a daughter, a friend,
I'm a writer, a reader, a comic,a clown.
I am strong, kind, sensitive, sweet, loving, emotional, vacious and deep!
I am happy, sad, fun, exciting, sexual, sensual,truthful, soulful and beautiful!
I'm a woman and a poet and the people that know me know that I show it!
OK, one or two words? Hmm,
“Seek and Yea Shall Find!"
I shall call myself,
A LADY BY DESIGN!
Love-n-Truth
Patty
I love this ,I too am a physically large woman but larger in soul and passion so I agree with this piece totally!
sweet poem .
Hear, Hear... Well said this is empowerment for the world... I placed these comments under a poem I have on my page called 'In praise of Corpulence' words are neither positive or negitive ...conotations however are. Usage governs meaning. Change the word and make it burn in a night of dark inferences. You have done that with this poem... and now the "word" means is ..."LOVE" keep writing - keep the faith
hi patty.. your poem makes me smile. i like the variation and how it all fits together so well, from beginning to end. very creative and well said. john
