"...I am the poet of the body,
And I am the poet of the soul.
oil on canvas "Motherhood" by Claudia Olivos. |
The pleasures of heaven are with me, and the pains of hell
are with me,
I am the poet of the woman the same as the man,
And I say it is as great to be a woman as to be a man,
And I say there is nothing greater than the mother of men"....
~Walt Whitman
