Dangerous Curves ahead..

Homage to My Hips

these hips are big hips.
they need space to 
move around in.
they don't fit into little
petty places. these hips
are free hips.
they don't like to be held back.
these hips have never been enslaved,
they go where they want to go
they do what they want to do.
these hips are mighty hips.
these hips are magic hips.
i have known them
to put a spell on a man and
spin him like a top

~Lucille Clifton



So I'm sitting in the library with my daughter who is working on a research paper.. I grab a book of poetry which I hardly ever do... and the book opened to this poem. It spoke to me as if Ms. Clifton herself were reading it..
 Love your Hips..
 No matter the size..
Don't let the world tell you how to feel about them ..
 Look with God's Eyes..
Women may whisper Men may stare...
 But never let either determine your worth..
Thick hips are Definitely a Blessing but more often a Curse. :)


CHILE BOO... Love those CURVES! I know I do..
