There are so many parts of a woman that make her Herself. They sometimes caress her in joyous, comforting ways and in other instance, they grip her tight with an ominous hold. She can be demure, sweet, caring, supporting and productive. She can also be mean, nasty-nice, a bully, a conniver, manipulator and deceiver. One thing is certain. Her worth will never diminish.
The Woman……..her Worry, her War, her Wisdom, her Words, her Womb, her Worth
It floats along the walls of her mind; it hovers for a place to find
Its rest for a child burning up with heat
For a trusted space her thoughts to emit
Her Worry!
It armours up on the battlefield of her soul; it rages under the covers of her world
To erase the scars of a wretched life
The highs and lows of existing as a wife
Her War!
It slides over the pages of her words; it imprints within the marrows so bold
To embed its sense on an ill planned error
The folly of a Sister fleeing from terror
Her Wisdom!
It sears and burns the gentlest ones; it bites with sharp incisors teeth
The trembling flesh of an ill-fated foe
An opposer she’s not afraid to bring low
Her Words!
|It cries and weeps with silent tears; it cowers, closes up, closes tight
Hangs low, overburdened with shame of a painful past
Whose memories confront like an icy blast
Her Womb!
It screams and shouts at the top of its lungs; its pages burn with an oldtime song
To echo the story known for too long
The message that can Never be wrong
Its Strong, It’s Strong!
Her Worth!

Yes, the worth of the woman equals the sum total of her experiences: the good, the bad and the ugly. Each encounter helps to shape her personality, character–her soul. It would be unfair to randomly select just one part and use it as a representative of her whole. The woman’s worth is a package whose contents, once unwrapped, could transport you on magical ride of exhilarating twists and frightening turns which are the peak and pit moments of her life!
Her WORRY easily translates into confident CALM
Her WAR often results in CONQUESTS
Her WISDOM always reflects in her crafty COUNSEL
Her WORDS can cauterize, cut, or comfort: Beware her CURSE!
Her WOMB is not defined by it fecundity or barrenness; it cradles
even the unborn child…it CARRIES civilisations
Her WORTH embodies her CORE!

And once she has been satisfied that all is well, her worry ceases and a calm ensues. Her wars are often controversial and strenuous. they often take up a huge portion of her life and demands her attention so that her full capability and confidence are restored. Oh yes her words can soothe the most irrational and irritable, the violent and unsettled, Yet they can slice, chop and mutilate with a venom and angst unmatched. Yes, her wisdom embedded in the bowels of wise grandmas, responsible Mentors make large strong waves.. And of course her womb apart from the physical can also represent her interactive space within her many varied relationships. Her worth above all, is her very essence.
Your summary has encapsulated the Woman who each of us is.
