To be a content woman
Her dreams have to include
Thoughts of happily ever after
Whether with or without you
Either path has her succeeding
The beauty in her expression
A perfect crystal clear mirror
Distraction looks good on her

Distraction! I love the premise to this poem lots.
Yes, distraction! What?? Oh, good. Me, too. I liked writing this one, Duke.
Yes, it was great reading it.
Thank you. I know how hard it is to admit to liking some of these poems. You are very kind.
Oh yes. Fairy tales sound nice.
🙂
Oh yes, they can be nice. 🙂
Oooh, I like that last line!!
Thank you, Starr. Me, too. 🙂
Nothing last forever. Someday we’ll all be alone.

Yes, so we must love ourselves first.
I don’t know that we come first, but it is a bit like putting the oxygen mask on us first so that we can help others.
Leslie
Yes, agreed. Thanks, Leslie 🙂

The image is beautifully chosen, as well. You are welcome to respond to my poetry any day. You amaze me.
She adorns herself in confidence
Her smile a reflection of her inner light
She looks in the mirror, not to look back,
but to measure the path and growth of her spirit.
Michael…thank you. I am a better woman for knowing you. You brought tears to my eyes with your response. I do sincerly hope I have grown.
You left me the most precious gift…I love your response. ♥
I’m so happy that you do. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}}} 🙂
You left me beautifully distracted… ♥
Wonder how that would look like from a man’s perspective … 🙂
Only one way to find out, Salva.
You are so encouraging, today! 🙂
Well, it is Friday. 🙂
