A Real Woman

What is real woman?
A real woman is…

A woman with style
A woman with a smile

A woman with grace
A woman with a kind face

A woman that’s wild,
But knows she ain’t no child.

A woman that’s smart
A woman with a heart

A woman with thighs
A woman that tells no lies

A woman that’s sassy
A woman that’s classy

A woman that’s loyal,
But acts like she’s royal.

A woman who is liberated
A woman that’s opinionated

A woman that’s loud
A woman that’s proud

A woman that’s fine
A woman that’s divine

A woman that goes to college
And isn’t afraid to apply her knowledge.

A woman that’s honest
A woman that’s modest

A woman with pride
A woman with stride

A woman can be any of these things,
But a real woman is many of these things.

So which are you?
A woman or a real woman?
