smooth operator
she is cool, hot, alluring
rockin' out with style
confident and impressive
lady believes her power
Notes
- This is the 2nd time that I made use of the ‘Mustache Set’ on the Magnetic Poetry website;
- I deliberately chose this set because this poem was written for International Women’s Day 2021;
- I wanted to write a poem about a confident woman with a set of words designed to describe confident men;
- #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021;
- I deliberately chose this set because this poem was written for International Women’s Day 2021;
- I again opted for a tanka, rather than a haiku;
- I’ve really been in a tanka groove recently;
- I found the featured image after writing the poem; it did not inspire the poem.
Yay to the woman and the men like you who see our value and share it! 👏💖💖💖💖
Amen❣️

It’s a pleasure to follow blog David.
🙏
I like how you’ve given a positive spin to that term. (K)
I’m just glad I could make this poem work without giving its heroine a mustache 😉
I was just reading an article about drag kings…
I was worried for some reason when I saw the image before the poem, plus the first two lines… but YEAH! this rocks David. 🤟

Very nicely done, David.
Thanks so much, Dolly ❤
You are very welcome, David.
A good poem for a good occasion David, with a set much at odds with the intent, but you managed it so well.
Thanks, Deb. It struck me as a somewhat ironic challenge for the day. 🙂
Awesomely done tribute. It’s rocking good. Cool 😎 thank you for writing this poem.

Thank you for contributing to #IWD2021! I love that you chose words normally used to describe men and used them to describe a confident woman. Of course, I’ve never heard a man described a ‘alluring’ but who knows…
I think perhaps the mustache could be alluring (from the perspective of the magnet set). Or – a smile (smile is also a word in that set).
A smile and an honest pair of eyes can certainly be, but we don’t tend to use that word to refer to men do we? It’s interesting!
True. True.
A lovely magtan (magnetic tanka) 🤭🤭😍❤️💐
Thank you
