Worth the Wait!



Hi all, so I've really been wanting to do a write-up on a topic very close to my heart. Waiting For "The One"... Well, Janette-ikz has taken that particular task away from me, cos this poem is EXACTLY from my heart through her mouth. And I'm sure, so many of you beautiful ladies will echo that. Please enjoy... and be blessed... and know that you CAN wait, once you truly know what you're waiting for.*

Dear Mr. God


So I've dipped into my fave box again today and pulled out this amazing number by the Warren Brothers. It was actually one of the songs featured in the beautiful movie 'Letters to God' which is an absolute 'must watch!'... Enjoy

Phenomenal Woman!!!






Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size 
But when I start to tell them, 
They think I'm telling lies.
I say, 
It's in the reach of my arms 
The span of my hips, 
The stride of my step, 
The curl of my lips. 
 
I'm a woman   

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.


I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
 

I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
what they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.

I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.


Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
 

'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
