An original poem:

What Size Am I?


I am beautiful.
I am successful.
My clothing is impeccable and well made.
Do you know my size?

I am a mother who plays with my child.
I am a daughter who helps her older parents.
I am a sister who is in touch with her sibling.
I will be a wife with a loving mate, who finds me irresistible.
Do you know my size?

I am a child of God.
I am a woman with an education.
My intelligence is above average.
Do you know my size?

I love to move my body.
It twists and turns.
It can hang from monkey bars and shoot "hoops".
Swimming is one of my favorite activities.
Do you know my size?

I am a clean woman, with wonderful fragrant smells.
I shower with the one I love.
My hair is long and healthy, shampoo runs over my body.
Do you know my size?

I am healthy.
I eat what I want.
I am rarely sick.
I give blood.
Do you know my size?

I am opinionated.
I will tell you what I think.
I do not try to hide my thoughts.
Do you know my size?

I love people.
Color, age, religion, orientation, ethnicity mean nothing to me.
Size is a number, and football players wear those.
Do you know my size?

I travel.
Flying isn’t my choice, however, I drive.
My car is a compact, economy size.
I will hike mountains to see a beautiful scene.
Do you know my size?

Is there an answer?

Does it matter?
