I Am A Woman

I am the stars and stripes
I am the mountain peak
I am the sunset's colors
I am the shooting star's streak
I am the chords that weep joy
I am a child's favorite toy

I am the warmth of a kiss
I am the spark from a fire
I am the ocean's wave
I am the food you desire
I am the sacred value
I am the bird that flys higher

I am man's hope
I am fashion's style
I am the storm's power
I am what makes me smile
I am the reason
I am the inch , & the mile

I am the monument
I am the dream
I am the logic
I am the boxer's sting
I am the dancer's grace
I am the artist's rendering

I am a gem's sparkle
I am the athelete's score
I am the scent of skin
I am the open door
I am the body's celebration
I am all this and more...

I am a Woman
