Poem: Stages of Woman

There is a way
that a young woman
moves her body
-the sexy way
and you look
at a young girl
and she moves
in the same way
but it is not sexy
yet
it is simply cute
but it is the seed
the begining
of slight movements
of the hips
tilt of the head
flip of the hair
arch of the back
and like a wine
they grow and refine
with age

A mature woman
has them mastered
under her total sway
and direction
she uses her movements
sparingly, powerfully
and always with a purpose.
Like a deadly weapon.

The young woman
flows with her
natural grace
shamelessly showing it off
to the world
which is so enamored
of her grace
the power of her sex
atracting everyone
who can see.
