THE WOMAN I HAVE BECOME (FEATURED POST)
Having studied circumstances surrounding the world of women..... The gender insecurities, abuse, responsibilities, Feminism, the African belief of "Women belong to the kitchen", gender discrimination, strengths and flaws, the struggle through childhood to old age.... To mention but a few. I decided to come up with a poem which summarises all the experience in the words "The woman I Have Become ". I'm not writing in appraisal or discrimination, but in realisation. Happy women's day. I'm so proud to be a Woman. The Woman I have Become So much for a child, So much for a girl, So much I have seen, So much I have experienced, So much that hurts a while, So much I seem to overcome, So much I look back on, So much I wished would change, So much I wished would remain, So much in this I was engulfed, So much I have become. Life has taught me a lot Life nurtured me along, Life gave me a little that counts so much, Life hurts me to heal me...
