Hello my faithful followers! Welcome to the 11th installment of Tuesdays with Nikki. I pray this blog finds you relaxed, refreshed and renewed.
Today's poem reflects how I am feeling lately. I just started a new job, my children returned to school and I have a lot of "extra" responsibilities on my plate that I tackle in my "spare" time. I am sure some of you can related. So with that being said, I offer you Nikki's poem entitled: The Wonder Woman (which by the way, was published in my birth year and was written for my favorite male singer...)
The Wonder Woman
(A New Dream- for Stevie Wonder)
by Nikki Giovanni

dreams have a way
of tossing and turning themselves
around and the times
make requirements that we dream
real dreams for example
i wanted to be
a sweet inspiration in my dreams
of my people but the times
require that i give
myself willingly and become
a wonder woman
