Woman, you are beautiful....

(Image taken from here Pc: Hema Gopinath Sah)

Woman, you are beautiful
with those spots
Just like the moon
and unplucked strawberries

Woman, you are beautiful
with those stretch marks,
the sweet residues your body left
after bringing God's masterpiece to earth
Flaunt them with pride

Woman, you are beautiful
without hair
Just like the sun
like the day you were born
And the day you killed cancer

Woman you are beautiful
with those strands of grays
Like salmon swimming
Up the river
A monochrome canvas from God

Woman you are beautiful
with every wrinkle
that holds inside its fold
another unknown story
another chapter to the wonderful
book that is you

The mirror you believe,
Calls the perfect - an ugly mistake
Because it knows not what is inside
Close your eyes and listen
To the love songs the universe
sings about you!

Srivalli & Micah
