Welcome to
AND
WOMEN WE HAVE LOVED
and LEARNED FROM
From all the women
before us
way back in the day
long, long before now.
They say
WE WOMEN
all have
eyes in the back
of our heads
All the better to see you with.
We also
carry upon our back
our very own
painter's palette
All the more to adore you with

determined, devoted and articulately driven.
We women
will share our heart and souls
barefooted or not.
All the better to care for those loved
by women
yesterday, today and tomorrow.
We women
live by our art
and work our fingers to the bone
feeding our hunger
or creativeness.

A women's art studio by day
is where she lives
by evening end.
It's where she plays
and lives wholeheartedly.
Just be yourself, there is no one better.

Brilliant.
Thank you for this wonderful poem. It is amazing and distressing that our foolish society insists on seeing women as "second best" in these modern times.
