A woman's heart

poem by: Shaffiate Ishmael
Written on Jan 30, 2018

 

my father always told me
"son don't go breaking no hearts
if you can’t take a woman to the finish line
then don't go making any false starts
 
don't take a woman heart for granted
treat her with kindness and respect
make her feel special and wanted 
never make her cry and feel neglect
 
for God created woman as a gift 
for a man to honor, cherish and love 
they are our heaven on earth
our beautiful angel from above
 
the magical wonders of a woman
has no limits or boundaries to retrieve
with a good woman beside you
"son "there's nothing that you can’t achieve
 
the words my father has spoken
it has never left my ears
and his wisdom and understanding
I carry with me throughout the years
 
one day I will find a good woman
and I will ask her to be my wife
and I shall treat her like a princess
love and cherish her for the rest of her life
 
the woman who gets my heart
will own it from now and forever
and I will fill her life with happiness
every second that we spend together

and I will take her to Trinidad and Tobago
Trinidad is the country where I was born
and will introduce her to all the tasty dishes
and to see the sunrise at the break of dawn
 
and we will take walks on the beach
holding hands under the moonlight
and if the sea breeze makes her cold
I will hold her in my arms all night
 
yes, the woman that I will love 
will be the queen of all queens
the diamond of all diamonds
the wish of my every dream
 
until I meet this beautiful woman 
who will be the one to share my life
I will continue to write my poems
knowing one day my angel will arrive
 
and will cover me with her love
like the sun over the seven seas
as my father looks down from heaven
proud of the man that I have come to be
