I found a poem today that shares what kind of person I am
almost better than anything I could say, so I am going to share it.
To see and watch
her is to know
That she is deeply
loved. Her face
Reflects this
love. Love has left its trace
In her serenity,
the glow
Of deep
contentment in her eyes.
Her joyous laugh,
the cheerful way
She goes about her
work each day.
Love halos women,
beautifies
The plainest face,
for more than bread
To every woman is
the knowing
She is cherished:
keeps her glowing
With confidence,
affection-fed:
Her happiness, so
much a part
Of love, enshrined
within her heart.
Velma West Sykes
If you know how I can get hold of this lovely poet to give her credit, please let me know.
