This is such a softly beautiful poem, and I love the word usage here. And a brilliant concept. Not to mention it's an incredibly honest poem and I can feel the passion intensely in each word. This captures life in such a brilliant beautiful way. I love the line, 'Man's pride if folly.' Thank you so much for sharing this piece of wisdom- brilliant!

I will share a bit of a secret with you Colacat because I so enjoy your art and voice. This is my love letter to womanhood. There is nothing that man could ever create; that women do by nature. I am in awe of their force and innate power. We are born to fall to it. Thank you again.

[Vertigo Cat1111]

Ah, I feel honored for you to share that with me! Women are absolutely powerful beasts and no one appreciates them often until it's too late. Thank you so much for sharing!

[Dave Brown]

and we continue to follow that path

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

Your absolutely create Dave we just never leave from our mistakes at all. We just destroy everything in our path like a sickening cancer or disease. Nature is only doing what she must to save this world from us. Thank you again.

I agree Carlos.
"Man's pride is folly"
We learn. If we believe we know everything. One day, we will learn. We knew nothing. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

Thank you CP for your kind thoughts on this poem and I am in total agreement with you. For men it is easier to destroy than create, while for women it is innately within their nature to create and love. Thank you again for your thoughts my friend.

You are welcome Carlos.

[Ruth]

Women do tend to be more like nature - ebbs and flows - indeed - nicely portrayed Carlos :)

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

Thank you Ruth and I am in total agreement. Women exemplify nature more then men ever could. They create life and nurture it. They are as strong as any storm and as soft as any breeze. I believe without Women love would not exist. Thank you so much again.

Well being a woman I can only say that she can bend like a herb but sometimes can be as solid as rock...it depends upon him.But at the end they are the supreme strength..

Thank you my friend for this beautiful poem

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

Thank you Dreamer Sima, being raised by a very strong woman I totally agree. That is the beauty of nature, and women truly reflect those incredible qualities as well even more so. Thank you so much again.
