And all of the other BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL, FABULOUS, GORGEOUS, SPLENDID, WONDEROUS, FANTASTIC, GRACIOUS, FAIR, LOVELY, CHARMING, ELEGANT, EXTRAORDINARY, ASTONISHING, AMAZING, REMARKABLE, ASTOUNDING, SWEET, STRIKING, and INTELLIGENT women on Babble. I learn so many things from each and every one of you each day. Thank you all so very much. (To the wonderful women mentioned above, please feel better soon. I think about you every day. Take care of yourselves. I would if I were as astonishing as you truly are!)

I can't write, so I have to steal, sorry Charlie!

Phenomenal Woman

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
They swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

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

Ladies, you are all truly phenomenal! Thank you again for being that way.
