An excellent piece Debi on how important women are in our lives, there are so many women who I look up to in the world. A well written piece, I really enjoyed reading it.

    Jacob, if you got any kinder, I would have to adopt you as another grandson and send you Christmas gifts. LOL. Because you are just that sweet.
    Thank you once again, dear friend. You are so appreciated! Love, Debi

Hi Debi,
This is a well written poem of love and thanks for all the women in your life. Perfect theme for the month.
The rhyming couplets work well to show you love them all equally but with a different kind of love. We should all be proud of our history and work for a strong future.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Happy Easter.
Joan

Hi Debi, your poem is so heartfelt and your words are so true. Of note:

So whether you're family or you're a friend
I'm proud of our History, right to the end

(Very nice. That says it all.)

Good rhyming couplets. Lovely photo and presentation. You've penned a poem of truth. This is a poem that makes a person say ahh.
Well done. Cheers to all the great women in history. Xo. M

    Well, my wonderful sister, you are the part that says,
    "These rare special women, each shine like a star
    I love you all dearly, you know who you are"
    But I know you knew that already. Thank you for the wonderful review and words for this poem for you and the others. I sure appreciate your six stars too, my sweet SOTU. Lotsa Love, Debi

What a heart warming poem Debi! I know my own mother is one of the most important people in my life and I'm so grateful for all my dear girl friends who have been there and supported me in my toughest times. :) This is such a loving tribute to all those special people. Thank you for posting!

    You are very welcome, Debi, and I did make the connection with the friend reference. I am glad you are going to follow up with men's health month. I don't know if you would like to make a book for that. I think people would respond, and it would get the men involved, too. Thanks for all you do, good friend, and Happy Easter, as well.

Hi Debi,
well... you had me from your first line, hook-line and sinker.
'I love the dear woman who gave me my start'.
All the lines that follow, sing in gratitude in the connection, honouring each of those special female souls who have allowed your heart to sing, and that is precious beyond words.

I wrote a essay a while back exclaiming my preference of females over males for various reasons... I never really finished it, nor posted it. For me, women are, and always will be the 'giver of life' and should always be honoured, regarded with reverence and treated as such.

My heart sends your heart love in the knowledge of your dear Mother and friend/Sister Paula who are no longer with you... and that is definitely the down-side of life. I know they are alive and well, deep within your heart and soul... especially your Mother... that cord can never be broken!

Loved reading this beautifully melodic poem Debi... all power to Women!

With our thoughts we create...
the knowledge of unbreakable bonds.

Warmest regards,
James.

    Oh James, this is possibly the most wonderful thing that anyone has ever related back to me in a review. Whenever someone has something kind to say about my mother, it means the world to me and I take notice.

    I love that you relate to women as a whole anyway and you did tell me this I think in info about yourself for your birthday poem. That shows that you have a big heart and appreciate them. Having such a wonderful wife sure doesn't hurt that, so let me add her to my list of wonderful women.
    And also thank you for the lovely six stars that honor us all.

    Thanks so much for the other awesome comments for my women's poem.
    In June is Men's health month, and I plan on writing for the guys then. Thanks again, my very dear friend. Please have a blessed Easter!
    Love, Debi

    Love and respect,

A powerful and moving tribute to the women in you life using traditional meter iambic tetrameter, ryme scheme and anaphora techiqnue repetition of My Dear and paralleism. BTW i have been using Bing Co pilot to do poetry analysis everytime I write or review a poem. I highly recommend using it or Google Gemina. I usually as it to analyzie the poem using the following criteria Please analyze the following poems indicating meter, if any, poetic techniques used, diction, theme, tone, word count, poetic schools, rhyme scheme, if any, indicated by letters, influences, and possible forms.. I would show the results but apparently that is in violation of Fan story rules. I have been warned before

    And yet the fact that you were warned told you it was ok to take one of the most personal poems of mine, about women who are important to me and do this to.
    Did you even read it or just give it to a computer. Shame on you.

This is a beautiful tribute to all the women who make up the mosaic of your life. All the pieces fit together to create a piece of art with different colors and shapes. And it will continue to grow through the years. Lovely sentiments!
