Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
Less than a woman?
   
Author: Chadene Gillespie
   
Poem:
Less than a woman?
   
 
I’ve always considered myself to be a strong woman
But really how strong am I?
Does it make me less of a woman if I reveal my feelings to another?
Does it mean I’m not strong if I break down and cry?

Is it ok if I can’t bear the weight of the world on my shoulders?
Does it mean I’m less of a woman if the stress in my life is too much to take?
Does it mean I’m not strong if I can’t make the perfect home?
Is it ok if in the morning I can barely stand to wake?

Does it mean I’m less of a woman if I need some time of my own?
Does it mean I’m not strong if I want to do things for others more than for myself?
Is it ok if my hair and nails aren’t done all the time?
Does it mean I’m less of a woman if I’m not the picture of wealth?

Does it mean I’m not strong if sometimes I’m insecure?
Is it ok if I’m jealous of the things I want but can’t get?
Does it mean I’m less of a woman if I have a hard time admitting my mistakes?
Does it mean I’m not strong if I get so overwhelmed sometimes I need to sit?

Is it ok if I’m not the picture of perfection?
Does it mean I’m less of a woman if I can’t hold things together all the time?
Does it mean I’m not strong if I need a shoulder to cry on every now and then?
Is it ok if I want something just for me, something just to be only mine?

Does a strong woman sometimes cry?
Does a strong woman sometimes get sad?
Does a strong woman have imperfections?
Does a strong woman sometimes get mad?

Do these things mean I’m not strong?
Is it ok that I need and want a man?
Is it ok that I’m not always perfect?
Am I less than a woman?

Farewell saints
   
Author: Samir Khan
   
Poem: Farewell saints
   

As I wait at the gates
Of the New Year
I look back and remember
All the Angels and Saints
That have been with me
For the past few years.

For you have ALL been
An inspiration to me
One way or another
For a simple smile from you
Made me feel like
I was in heaven
Among the Angels and Saints
Of the lord.

I may never find another place
Where I felt so at home
A place my first dreams
Came true as my talents grew
A place like St Mary's

My second home.

Life in Saints was
One hell of a ride
For my Friends were
Always close by
To lift me up
Whenever I was down.

I wish I had more time,
To get to know
Each and everyone of them
For my ride has just
Come to an end.

I will surely miss life
Among the Angels and Saints
In a place like St Mary's
