That's "V!"


Last month one of the MOST PHENOMENAL women I've EVER met celebrated her 40th Birthday with a fabulous birthday bash!  Although she made TWO entrances in TWO, different dresses, she left only ONE impression on me:  At 40 years old, my friend, VICTORIA -- for the first time in her life -- walked into the moment of accepting all she is...all God has made her to be...from head-to-toes...hip-to-hip...ear-to-ear...smile-to-laugh...every curve...and alllll that rump!!!

Now you understand
Just why her head's not bowed.
She doesn't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see her passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of her heels,
The bend of her hair,
The palm of her hand,
The need of her care,
'Cause she's a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's "V!"

(Rearranged excerpt of Maya Angelou's, Phenomenal Woman)
