I Am a Lady

entry picture

 

I am a lady of a stunning age,

I can still perform on a stage.

I can still be someone’s pride,

My range of interests is wide.

 

Putting on a stunning dress

I’ll make every man confess

She is a woman of super class

Who hates swagger and sass.

 

With sniper fidelity and my charm,

Without any noise and extra alarm

I’ll kill all men on the spot, at once.

Not giving anyone a chance.

 

I can become someone’s prize.

That someone will have to realize

How much I am expressive,

All in me is just impressive.

 

I can still be someone's Sunday,

Make an ordinary day a holiday,

Get a bottle of laugh from a store,

At breakneck speed new explore.

 

And due to my fascinating view

I can make anything to become true

For example, replacing old with new

But … I just don’t feel like to.

I wasn't implying that any of the comments here were emperors new clothes. I'm sure they are honestly felt. With best wishes

An emperor can walk naked but everyone will say that his clothes are beautiful.

You worry about the emperor's new clothes? Please, don't! Cuckoo praises a cock because a cock praises a cuckoo.

I like all kinds of comments and criticism as well. They help me. And it doesn't really matter if they are positive or negative.

I didn't say I am that type of a lady. Yes, it's my poem, but... it doesn't mean I write about myself.

Sentiment - 'I like. It is so beautiful. Am that type of a lady too!' Yes or no?

What I mean by sentiment is the 'I am a woman' idea. I'm probably now digging a hole and sounding sexist. I read poems here and don't comment because I don't even think they are worthy of commenting on. But I could read that you are a poet. I wanted to say what I felt, sounding pompous now, to maybe provide positive criticism. If I make on criticism of this site, it's I worry about the emperor's new clothes. Sometimes, and not all, I've seen criticism made, people are just too nice about people's work. Best wishes Glyn

Yes, Glyn, you are right. It's just you. And.... Why is it the sentiment?

The rhythm seems wrong again. And too many rhymes. But maybe its just me. I can see why women like the sentiment though.
