Anthea Slade replied
Here is the partner to ‘He’ for you MistressZombie…I hope you enjoy :)
She rhymes with ‘he’ ‘tree’ and ‘me’
She is real and she is raw
She is beauty at the core
She is courtesan, amazon, madonna and mother
She is throughout history considered ‘other’
She hurts but her heart stays open
She is instinct – she is knowledge
She nurtures by heart
She is sensitive
She is sensual and she is smart
She is loving from the start
She is soft – she is strong
She knows but still she powers on
She comes in all shapes, sizes and colours
She is delicate, fragile and playful
She loves her inner child
She mothers her children
She is sexual and she is courageous
She is red, pink and blue
She is resiliant
She breaks and puts herself back together
She is apple pear or hour glass
She has curves and she is deep
She has lips nose eyes
She has legs, breasts and more
She likes a room of her own
She craves to connect…be valued and seen
She has a voice and likes to speak
She is layered and she is mystery
She likes to take time to know you
She is more then what you see
She is grace under pressure
She loves to sing, dance, cry and be free
She loves to love and be loved in return
She is passionate and she likes to dance
She is at her essence about romance
She moves her heart in amazing ways
She is yin, the night and silver
She is moon
She is the red rose…pink heart…the green earth
She possesses an inner glow
She is a queen, goddess and princess
She is a wise old lady
She is a girl
She is woman.

Plum
This is beautiful – He has so much to offer – its wonderful you see what sometimes lies hidden, waiting to express … and She is beautiful too, so many apt phrases that capture the essence of woman. Brings home how remarkable man and woman are, what they hold within, their essence and divine spark and then the interplay between the two … wow
Anthea Slade replied
Oh Plum thank you for this thoughtful and sensitive feedback to He and She…this is wonderful comment as you have responded to both poems…I just loved the words… Brings home how remarkable man and woman are, what they hold within, their essence and divine spark and then the interplay between the two…to me Plum your words are poetry in response to my poem….Just beautiful. Anthea

If you put the He and She poems side by side on a poster. It would be come a classic, IMHO. What you unerstand about HEs and SHEs is fabulous and worthy of mass public consumption. Like every college kid has a Desiderata, each reforming alcoholic a Serenity poem, this has a universality that is simply great. Just a thought. RVG
Anthea Slade replied
I just love your vision for He and She and you have definitely triggered a thought in my mind. I can visualise your suggestion…Yes Desiderata…I did know as a college kid…it was on my wall lol. I am not an alcoholic but I do love serenity poems…I like where your mind and imagination dances to in your responses…your comments are an absolute delight for my soul. Thank you RVG.
msdebbie
The inspiration that Jono took from you Anthea, to create We, from the He and She pieces, is like one I wrote called Man, inspired by Paul Rees-Jones writing about Woman
Gotta love the bubble xoxo
Anthea Slade replied
msdebbie I agree you gotta love the bubble. I will have to have a read of your poem Man in reponse to Paul Rees-Jones. Thanks for reading He and She my friend.
