I was glad
I was glad for the day
Day for women to say their piece
Glad for a woman to play with me
One who romped in the grass
We swam, played and romped together
We remembered the day for its worth
One of thirty we choose to honor women
Women around the world more happy
Happy on their special day of special month

It is important to celebrate and honour what is important in our lives.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way of saying 'thank you'! Jae
ReplyDeleteYour poem of fondness and gratitude left me a little sad. One day, one month! But those of us who spend time with women know there's more than that--all genders loving each other.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Jim. I love thr romping and playing! Smiles.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully and heartfully put.
ReplyDeleteGreat to have a day to celebrate women, but also it would be good if there was no need to have a special day....but we would all celebrate one another every day!
ReplyDeleteWell said, Jim. If all things were equal, we wouldn't have to wait for a special day.
