Hello Linda,
A very nice double 5-7-5 poem on security and strength
It may well depend on how one measures strength -
by the strength of one's arm or the strength their love
Excellent counter-position of the poems and thoughts
Nicely done in all ways

HI yes this is the prayer we all keep in our hearts, being for the one one loves or friends. It is always sad to part ways. This write is great and simple and straight and carries all the prayers it expresses.

This is a very beautiful piece. I think the artwork goes along perfectly with the feel of the poem. A reminder that a woman's true strength lies in her heart.

Comment from rama devi
I like the juxtaposition of voices in the two stanzas. A women's arms are stronger than a mans in many metaphorical respects! Fine flow and simple voicing captures the POV and characterization between the lines. NIce medley of S and W sounds both stanzas and T in the second stanza. The flow between lines is not fluid but because the lines and poem are both short, it is easy to read even without smooth enjambment.
Reading this, I feel like pauses would enhance it. To keep no caps and punctuation, I recommend pauses with formatting to sculpt phrasing. Example:
stay with me always
you make me feel so secure
wrapped within my arms
a woman's embrace
may not be strong as a man's
but just as heartfelt
Love and hugs,
rd

Comment from penniless pen
I like this short poem, a woman's embrace needn't be as strong as there tends to be more emotion with it. Excellent description of the power of an embrace.

Comment from Leineco
Ahhh...what a lovely reversal...and yet, most apt! I don't
mean to presume to speak for my male counter parts, but
I have always felt women have a deeper connection to the
security aspect of both embracing and being embraced...I
have a suspicion many of us learned it from our dads, as
little girls :-)
A very nicely done pairing of 5-7-5s :-)
