A Woman's Transformation
What women fear
In the realm of seasons, a woman's transformation stirs,
a metamorphosis unseen, yet deeply felt,
where whispers of change and secrets unfurl,
Menopause, a journey through life's mystic belt.
*
Within the temple of womanhood's domain,
a shift unfolds, like colors in the sky,
a symphony of hormones, an intricate refrain,
as cycles ebb and flow, bidding farewell to the why.
Oh, menopause, a dance of fire and ice,
embracing the flame, extinguishing the chill,
a paradoxical path, both fierce and wise,
unveiling treasures that time alone can distill.
*
Gone are the fertile days, the childbearing years,
but behold, freedom blossoms in their stead,
no longer tethered to the whims of fears,
a liberation embraced, a new path to tread.
The moon, once a guide in the night's embrace,
now mirrored within, in each radiant glow,
wisdom and grace intertwine with grace,
as the soul takes flight, transcending what we know.
*
Embracing the wrinkles, the signs of time,
they're etchings of stories upon our skin,
each line is a testament, a verse in rhyme,
a testament to a life lived from within.
*
With menopause, a new chapter emerges,
a canvas for dreams yet to be unveiled,
the spirit rekindles, as passion surges,
an awakening, as vibrant colors are exhaled.
*
So, let us celebrate this divine transition,
with open hearts and minds, we shall endure,
Menopause, a metamorphosis with precision,
a tapestry of strength, resilience, and allure.
*
In this symphony of change, let us find our tune,
as we navigate the dance, step by step,
Menopause, a radiant gift, to us, attune,
a testament of womanhood lovingly kept.

Watch the following video of women singing Queen's tune turned Menopause song. It's quite amusing.
