My Revolution
A poem for all the liberated women I have ever known.27 total reviews
Comment from Bill Schott
In this poem, My Revolution, you present the mindset and determination of women in general to not be held back or under-valued. I've always found treating women like people, and not separate entities, is always successful in dissolving gender problems. Nice poem.

Wow Bill, I appreciate your sober and most intelligent review comments. You don't resemble Ned at all. Pons would be so proud of you.
Comment from LIJ Red
I have worked for female supervisors and was married to a woman who I helped to be as liberated as she wished. The fear went away, the magic went away, but the same percent of women as men won my respect...all homo sapiens.
Excellent poem.

Thank you. Glad to know that there are men out there who are not threatened by capable, competent women.

Hello, :)
Good poem, and if I didn't know you were a man, I would have said this was written by a woman. Thank you, for writing this and caring. Sometimes I feel paled by the men in my life, but I know that I am worth something.
I found a typo in your author's notes:
Out of gratitude to these women, this poem was born. The image cam (forget 'e') from the Istock website.

Thank you for your wonderful comments. I also thank you for catching my error. Errors help me to remember that I am not yet perfect so I must keep on working, keep on improving.
Comment from GLOBALEYES
Great rhyming words to express what we mothers and sisters feel when challenged. Congratulations for being raised by such strong women. Your poem is a testament to realization that we recognize a spiritual battle is always being waged and we are forever preparing. It's a mental revolution.

Well, the last line climaxed the piece, as it should be. I love the way you write--simple, knowing, wise with a nice flow and great rhymes. You never used a word that wasn't needed. Nothing to change here. It's good just to know that you're appreciated as a writer, eh? AND YOU ARE.

HI here I send a lot of congrats to learn to be yourself in situation where you seem to be the only man, a great achievement. One needs to be strong to revolutionize oneself.
There is a great deal to learn from this write, for revolution is from inside not outside

My mother always used to tell me; "Dean, never disrespect a woman. Always remember, you came out of one."
Nicely done, Nomi.

Thank you Dean. Your mother was obviously very wise. If yiu are trying to make me jealous with your fancy graphics, it worked

No, Nomi. I don't want anyone to be jealous of anything I do, LOL.
You're more than welcome.

Comment from Gloria ....
Niiceeeeeee one, Nomi. I think this is exactly what happened. The "revolution" has been defined by not being defined and it happened all the same.
Great job with a most inspiring poem.
Thank YOU for sharing.
