We are all born
Creative
Early childhood is all about
Being creative.

Soon, however, life
Steps in.
It tries to ***** out
Our creative instincts
By labelling us
Rebellious
Naughty
Selfish
When we try to do
Our own thing.

It tries to ***** out
Our creative self
By fitting us into
Life's boxes
Life's moulds.

Doctor
Lawyer
Engineer
Accountant.

Go the safe route
Life urges
Go the secure route
Life urges
Follow convention
Be serious!

The adult creative
However
Is the child who
Survives
This onslaught
This manipulation
This war on the
Creative self
And chooses instead
To follow their own path
In life.

The road less travelled.

Where
Fun
Freedom
And
True fulfillment
Await.

We think that
The secret to everlasting
Youth and vitality
Lies in
Outer appearance
What we eat
What we wear
What we weigh
That's a lie.

The truth is that
The Fountain of Youth
Is to be found
Within
Not
Without.

Once you drink
From this
Fountain of Youth
That lies deep within
Eternal youth
Is yours

Now and
Forever.

I wear my
Femininity
Like a French perfume
A heady mix of
Softness
Gentleness
Compassion and
Love.

Revelling in my
Femininity
Makes me not a
*** object
Revelling in my
Femininity
Makes me not
Vain
Makes me not
Frivolous
Rather
It makes me exclaim in
Celebration
Ooo! La! La! La!

I salute my
Femininity
As a work of art

A work of art
To be
Appreciated
Cherished
And yes!
Enjoyed!

Men
Women
Children
Are entranced by my
Sweet fragrance and
The nonchalant air of
Je ne sais quoi!
With which I carry myself.

A strong, feminine
Gracious woman
Is a sight to behold
Whatever her size.

She brings
Glory to God
Whose Handiwork
She is.

Oooo! La! La! La!

A life well-lived
Is a life of living in
Victory
Not
Defeat.
A life of
Show
Not
Tell.

Those who have eyes
Shall see
Those who have ears
Shall hear.

Inspired
They too shall turn from
Living in
Defeat
To living in
Victory.

So be the Good News
And
Shine on!
