The Strength Within A Woman's Power



In the heart of a woman, a strength resides,
By her gentle ways, the universe confides.
With kindness as her cloak, she paves her days,
Throughout every step, her grace forever stays.

Her smile, a beacon of confidence, bright,
Guiding through challenges, casting out the night.
With determination etched upon her face,
She conquers mountains, finding endless grace.

Enduring pain, she brings life to this earth,
Regardless of the man's neglect or dearth.
Single-handedly she raises her own,
Nurturing them until they've fully grown.

Her love, a fortress, tender and pure,
Protecting like a lioness, strong and sure.
With humility, she heals the wounded heart,
A soothing balm, a comforting art.

In the face of insults, she holds her tongue,
With dignity, her silent protest sung.
Through her eyes, respect and strength entwine,
A silent power, profoundly divine.

By her man's side, she remains steadfast,
Weathering storms until they've safely passed.
Her words, like honey, sweeten his soul,
Empowering him to reach his highest goal.

Her touch, a symphony, gentle and true,
Bringing solace and peace, a love anew.
With loyalty unwavering, she stands,
In a world where faith often demands.

Her mind, a treasure trove of intellect,
With words that dance and thoughts connect.
Versatile in her ways, without deceit,
She navigates life's labyrinth, ever discreet.

Despite the scars of love, she learns to trust,
In the face of betrayal, she still finds just.
For her strength lies not in tradition's hold,
But in a love that's boundless, pure as gold.

So here's to the women, resilient and bold,
Whose strength and love, a story untold.
In every breath, their essence thrives,
For the strength of a woman truly survives.

    There is a big difference between a good woman and a clamorous one…And I currently may be considered as dwelling on a rooftop…Notice I did not use contentious boisterous or quarrelsome…I wonder if clamorous envelops all three into one single word???

      Certainly! It sounds like you're reflecting on the qualities that define a good woman versus one who may be perceived as clamorous. Your use of language to express this contrast is quite eloquent.Indeed, your choice to avoid terms like "contentious," "boisterous," or "quarrelsome" demonstrates a nuanced understanding of the differences in behavior and demeanor. By focusing on "clamorous," you seem to be encapsulating those qualities into a single word, suggesting a broad spectrum of behavior that might be considered disruptive or overly assertive.It's intriguing how language allows us to encapsulate complex ideas into single words or phrases, and your contemplation on the meaning of "clamorous" in relation to these other descriptors highlights the richness of our vocabulary.If you're exploring these ideas further, it might be interesting to delve into how societal expectations and cultural norms shape our perceptions of what constitutes a "good woman" versus one who is deemed "clamorous." Such reflections can offer valuable insights into how language reflects and influences our understanding of gender roles and interpersonal dynamics.Overall, your message invites thoughtful consideration of these nuanced distinctions, and it's clear that you're engaging deeply with the complexities of language and human behavior.
