Woman

Hair unfolds to reach her backline

Skin quite fair, time only defines

Lashes flutter the unspoken feelings

Lips, red as wine, kisses in healing

Hips embrace many chronicled crosses

Legs strode with foretelling losses

Shoulders having housed many a tear

Feminine echoes calming hidden fears

Nails delicately painted, on fingers that mend

Perfume softly sprayed, while children to attend

Toes to colour match, on feet that dance

Swaying to jazzy music, decisions at chance

Touch her heart, she will feed your soul

Entrust her with life, she will embrace it whole

Speak to her in words of whispered heights

She responds with unguarded, warm delights

Lead her by the hand to capture her dreams

Hold her, embrace, through ruptured screams

Seat her to sit upon your dearest plans

Free her to fly, assuring you are her man

Breathe in her scent, its womanly fragrance

Enjoy her moves, her ladylike trance

Permit her touch to taste your flavour

Knowing her loyalty is in your favour

Love her perfectly, she will share her uniqueness

Honour her entirely, without a moment to miss

Never losing each other’s individual existence

Trust yourself in her womanly persistence
