My Phenomenal Woman
- response to Maya Angelou's "Phenomenal Woman"
My phenomenal woman,
I have never seen another like you,
You're phenomenally, fiercely, wonderfully,
Crafted by the hand of God,
Who selflessly le you forth from his hand,
To be with us here, its all
In your razzle
In your cooling voice
In your spicy breath
It is all in you
Wonderful
Phenomenal in each respect.
You are a goddess living on earth
The wreath halo on your head is testimony,
To the divine and fine nature of your existence,
With each move of your hips
The eyes of men bow, their jaws follow suite
And they wonder what it is you search for
In your never ending joy
In your lust for life
In your hunger for living
It is all in you
Wonderful
Phenomenal in each respect.
So keep on dancing to the whistle of the sky
Keep shining more than the stars combined
For you are a Venus which is all mine
Full in her love and sex, born of the sea
The sea parted like side to side
To let you come ashore to this earth
In the breath of your spirit
In the jewel in your heart
In the wink of your eye
It is all in you
Wonderful
Phenomenal in each respect.
Even when the gods saw you walking
Cooley and slowly on the earth
They wanted to tear down the gates of heaven
Sit on top of the trees and watch you
In your life of grace as if they
Are watching players in a theatre, I said it
In the flowers in your air
In the blessing of your life
In the woman that is you
It is all in you
Wonderful
Phenomenal in each respect.
