Labor for Labor Day.... TOO MUCH LABOR if you ask me :)

So i briefly scanned the history of Labor Day  and let me tell you, its labor to read it. It was pretty much as dry as dirt but it basically said that Labor Day is set aside to honor those "who from rude nature have delved and carved all the grandeur we behold." -Peter J. McGuire.   Anywho i just thought you might be slightly curious. Now for something i think is more fun.  I'm going to include a poem by my favorite poet, Maya Angelou. This poem is title 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.

Then 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 still 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 of my care,

Cause I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That's me.

I hope you enjoyed that as much as i did. Oh as a side note, on the very small possibility that some guy ever decides to ask me out.  Please make sure they know that i dont like roses ( I perfer Sunflowers) and i dont like poetry (UNLESS its Maya Angelou) I do LOVE chocolate (as any woman should). I love this poem because its for normal girls you know? Not the ones that are a size two and spend hours making themselves looks beautiful. But for the girls who care more about personality then looks and who might have to, Heaven forbid, wear clothes bigger then that of a healthy middle schooler. That was my little rant lol. My labor day was nice and relaxing. And i really hoped you enjoyed yours as well.
CIAO!
