Phenomenal Woman
By Maya Angelou
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cut or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips,
I'm a woman
Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.............
