Curvy, Phenomenal and Proud

My body is like the Grand Canyon
Full of curves and dips
A chest that protrudes like mountain tops
to Legs that stick like best friends
I am a journey, an adventure begging to be explored
Like Maya Angelou states "I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,   
That’s me.''
I am proud of my hips
They pad me and embrace each corner I hit or person I run into
They were made for close contact
"The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style."
I remind myself, that each curve of my body is unique and perfectly designed, so I smile big and love each love handle
Gave each breast a name and learned how to make that satellite dish attached to my back shake. 
I am proud of my body and will never change it.
Laugh every time I hold my breast while I run
I may not be the skinny girl 
But God gave me these assets, not to flaunt gauntly 
But to
Embrace it
So like the 
Grand Canyon when I show my off my hidden beauties  it is special
Appreciated
But it's my confidence that makes the sway in my hips,
the bounce of each step and 
the smile on my face because with each new day I am reminded that 
"Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me."
