Her voracious energy <br />............................captured life. <br />She devoured days, <br />...................poetically climbed <br />The mountain of 'being', <br />..............................and thrived <br />On romance, <br />........being born to a new time <br />When expressions of love <br />...................became accepted, <br />Yet still in man's world, <br />..............soon scribed her way <br />And another fine classic <br />..........................she perfected, <br />Proving female persistence <br />.....................could win the day. <br /> <br />To women of substance <br />................thought had occured <br />That then was the time <br />.......their voice could be heard<br /><br />Fay Slimm<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/woman-of-substance-4/
