5 SMALL POEMS TO REMIND WOMEN OF THEIR WORTH (FROM CRAFTED WILD)

You race, 

and you may 

pass the finish line. 

A line you never even drew, 

but you use to define 

yourself. 

Only you missed 

all those little daisies, 

waiting 

to be picked and kissed 

and made into 

your crown. 

Queen of your life, 

you cannot be defined 

by lines. 

Lay me down, 

gently 

and tell me 

I am good 

I am good 

I am good 

and when the words 

fail me, 

when words 

just cannot explain me 

because words 

cannot contain me, 

I feel it. 

Bloom 

through my body 

and I just bloom 

and bloom 

and bloom. 

And so the rose, rose.

Yes, she did. 

Up from the loving ground. 

And what a sight to behold, 

wearing that fearless blush. 

What stories might be told 

as petals unfold. 

Those thorns are sharp, 

but her heart is gold. 

Wild rivers 

roaming to find 

their ocean. 

And how it 

calls them so. 

Oh to know 

just how expansive 

you are. 

The birds sing to wake you. 

Lift the mask 

gently from your eyes 

slip out 

from under your covers 

stretch your arms 

and rise. 

The day is here 

come all the way from night 

to tell you 

I love you. 

Oh how I love 

to see you rise 

and how I love 

to see you shine.
