Womanity

Gustav Klimt 'Lady with fan'

In the many lifes of your being,
in your veins
claim the wise
runs the blood of ancient empires
centuries of history display in your eyes
lighted by the flames of the promethean fires

Adventurous sailors tamed oceans
colonized worlds unknown
not knowing their ships moved through the motions
of the mirages of hope you've left unshown

The breezes whisper springs after midnight
all the cosmic children smile hearing your song
It’s that womanity in you, warm and bright
That makes them dream dawn after dawn
