I'm struggling with working out and really trying to keep up with the running.
Women need to be more proud of their hot bodies! :] Just wanted to share with you all. ♥

My legs
were once two hairy sticks
that weren't very good at jump rope
but by the time I reached the age of algebra
they had come into their own
and now in spin class
they are revered
envied for their strength
honored for their beauty
hairless for the most part
except that place the razor misses
just behind the ankles
I have thunder thighs
And that's a compliment
Because they are strong
and toned
and muscular
and though they are unwelcome
in the petite section
they are cheered on in marathons
fifty years from now
I'll bounce a grandchild on my thunder thighs
and then I'll go out for a run

My Butt is Big
and round like the letter C
and ten thousand lunges
have made it rounder
but not smaller
and that's just fine
it's a space heater
for my side of the bed
it's my ambassador
to those who walk behind me
it's a border collie
that herds skinny women
away from the best deals
at clothing sales
my butt is big
and that's just fine
and those who might scorn it
are invited to kiss it

My Hips
Return to Puberty
When I'm in dance class
making them crazy
and sportaneous
and optimistic
and prone to drama
and I don't understand them
and sometimes they
don't understand themselves
when the music stops
they're still charged
don't touch me
sparks will fly




oh my heck! i freakin' love those!
