Ini nih, puisi wajib buat para wanita di luaran sana, menurut Maya Angelou
Every Woman
Maya Angelou
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …
Enough money within her control to move
out and rent a place of her own,even if
she never wants to or needs to…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
something perfect to wear if the
employer,or date of her dreams wants to
see her in an hour…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
a youth she’s content to leave behind….
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
a past juicy enough that she’s looking
forward to retelling it in her old age…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill,
and a black lace bra…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …
one friend who always makes her laugh…
and one who lets her cry…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
a good piece of furniture not previously
owned by anyone else in her family…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
eight matching plates, wine glasses with
stems,and a recipe for a meal,that will
make her guests feel honored…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…
a feeling of control over her destiny…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to fall in love without losing herself..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to quit a job,break up with a lover,
and confront a friend without ruining
the friendship…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
when to try harder… and WHEN TO WALK
AWAY…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
that she can’t change the length of her
calves, the width of her hips, or the
nature of her parents..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
that her childhood may not have been
perfect…but it’s over…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
what she would and wouldn’t do for love
or more…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to live alone… even if she doesn’t
like it…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
whom she can trust, whom she can’t, and
why she shouldn’t take it personally…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
where to go…be it to her bestfriend’s
kitchen table…or a charming inn in the
woods…when her soul needs
soothing…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
what she can and can’t accomplish in a
day…a month…and a year…
(Maya Angelou’s Best Poem)
