Here is my poem:<br /><br />A goddess, She is<br />Rarely seen is the depth of her psyche<br />Sybaritic inner being<br />She covets it<br />Holds tight that place within her<br />Revealing it only to the worthy, who are few<br />Never promising to not shed tears<br />Never apologizing for feeling<br />Never running from confrontation<br />Accepting her own confidence when others can’t<br />Still reclusive in the swarm<br />She is “just” a woman, <br />A goddess, she isBeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02543251619208663847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7408689827786151696.post-83629939745990714872010-08-24T12:04:17.519-07:002010-08-24T12:04:17.519-07:00I am ALIVE!

I love how your sentences flow into one another and are connected rather than seperate thoughts. I believe you! I believe everything you said is honest and true about you. I believe that your son looks up at you with pride but I wonder if your next line implies that he truly doesn't know the truth about you. I don't know you but I find it hard to believe that you are one to hold truth back from him. Is there anything you would not want him to ask you in fear you would have to tell him the truth? If so, what are you afraid of? These are rhetorical questions. I wouldn't expect you to respond but I ask myself these same questions as well. What would I not want people to know about me and why? What am I afraid of? You encourage me!Alexisnoreply@blogger.com
