Okay, so I'm writing poetry about women (and men) looking and feeling good about themselves again! It's like Patti LaBelle's classic tune said: "I've Got a New Attitude!" I guess you could say "Long live the Corset!" Look what kind of excitement it's bringing back!
Time to Fall In Love Again...with yourself! Time to celebrate you!
SUN LIGHT
A momentary glimpse halted my stride, caused me
to back up, make sure I was seeing what
I thought I was.
It was awesome, really, so much so
I backed up, made sure
it was real.
Sure enough there it stood,
crisp, stunning, the kind of sight
you see only now and then.
The smile caught me a wee bit off guard,
made me self-conscious that I had been
caught staring shamelessly
at the reflection of me
refractured by the rays
of the sun of a brand new day
dancing off the windows
of my world.

I'm still completely awed by what I have been seeing happening to individual self-esteem with "Body Magic!" Clearly, I'm not the only one!
