PHENOMENAL WOMAN
BY MAYA ANGELOU
PRETTY WOMAEN WONDER WHERE MY SECRET LIES.
I'M NOT CUTE OR BUILT TO SUIT A FASHION MODEL'S SIZE
BUT WHEN I START TO TELL THEM,
THEY THINK I'M TELLING LIES.
I SAY,
IT'S IN THE REACH OF MY ARMS
THE SPAN OF MY HIPS,
THE STRIDE OF MY STEP,
THE CURL OF MY LIPS.
I'M A WOMAN
PHENOMENALLY.
PHENOMENAL WOMAN,
THAT'S ME.
I WALK INTO A ROOM
JUST AS COOL AS YOU PLEASE,
AND TO A MAN,
THE FELLOWS STAND OR
FALL DOWN ON THEIR KNEES.
THEN THEY SWARM AROUND ME,
A HIVE OF HONEY BEES.
I SAY,
IT'S THE FIRE IN MY EYES,
AND THE FLASH OF MY TEETH,
THE SWING IN MY WAIST,
AND THE JOY IN MY FEET.
I'M A WOMAN
PHENOMENALLY.
PHENOMENAL WOMAN,
THAT'S ME.
MEN THEMSELVES HAVE WONDERED
WHAT THEY SEE IN ME.
THEY TRY SO MUCH
BUT THEY CAN'T TOUCH
MY INNER MYSTERY.
WHEN I TRY TO SHOW THEM,
THEY SAY THEY STILL CAN'T SEE.
I SAY,
IT'S IN THE ARCH OF MY BACK,
THE SUN OF MY SMILE,
THE RIDE OF MY BREASTS,
THE GRACE OF MY STYLE.
I'M A WOMAN
PHENOMENALLY.
PHENOMENAL WOMAN,
THAT'S ME.
NOW YOU UNDERSTAND
JUST WHY MY HEAD'S NOT BOWED.
I DON'T SHOUT OR JUMP ABOUT
OR HAVE TO TALK REAL LOUD.
WHEN YOU SEE ME PASSING
IT OUGHT TO MAKE YOU PROUD.
I SAY,
IT'S IN THE CLICK OF MY HEELS,
THE BEND OF MY HAIR,
THE PALM OF MY HAND,
THE NEED FOR MY CARE,
'CAUSE I'M A WOMAN
PHENOMENALLY.
PHENOMENAL WOMAN
THAT'S ME.
all kinds of music like Joss Stone, Prince, Al Green, some country, pop, R&B, and blues.
I'm in College so I read a bunche of stuff, most of it I don't want to read. When I used to have free time to read - I liked books based on real event....crimes, biographys, etc.
