These are one of the poems for my new book Courage is Magic and it’s called Courageous Woman
Courageous Woman
You ever seen a woman smile while breaking down in tears ?
I have
You ever known a woman to be down to her lowest but standing strong ?
I do
I know her
I am her
I’ve looked in the mirror and I’ve seen those tears she’s shed
I’ve felt her pain inside and out
I am her
I wear many scars
I have taken many beatings
I’ve been called the horrible unforgivable names
But I’m still here
I’m that courageous woman
Who doesn’t have to worry about the devil
Because I know my God
And I know he fights for me
I am strong
You don’t know me or what I can do
I am fierce...Savage
I am mystical...spiritual
I am strong...powerful
I am blissful
My soul is indestructible
I am a courageous Woman

Welcome here and thanks for the follow. You can increase your score with effective utilization of the capsules: photo, text, video/s and poll. Try your hand at writing a loving article or essay on love or a theme you're happy with.
Remember, five or six lines per paragraph, enhances readability and friendliness and will not crowd your page. Roughly 700 words are cool.
As I have noted below, I love your work. Peace.

Yes, right approach! God loves us all and never gives us more than we can carry. Yet it is a long and challenging road. In that sense, I salute you, just as much as I pay homage to the concern, resilience, fortitude and sweet sacrifice of women. Keep standing tall, even while bowing in humility to the One. - Lantern Carrier
