Natural Woman
"I'm going to do it," she mused
Going Natural was the thing
in its beginnings, do or not
There was no recipe back then
In the attic for Grandma's dress
Old and once was bright, faded now
A ruffled blouse simulated
adorned her top--hid naturals
Plastic fowls faked natural look
cage for two with one in her hand
Their lovely songs filling the air
when batteries were new and fresh
Strut up the walks, down the alleys
People loved show of vanity
Whatever made her dress to change
Had boosted her good family name
Very proud, Natural Women was,
to herself she thought,
"History's made"

- I am linked with Carrie who is celebrating The Sunday Muse event of having made 200 posts prompting and goading us to write. For this celebration she posted ten previously used photos from which we should choose, I chose Susie's above. See them all and links to others at http://thesundaymuse.blogspot.com/2022/02/sunday-muse-200.html
- Carrie said, "Welcome Muse Friends to the 200th Muse prompt & celebration! April 2018 was when it all began with the talented poet, Chrissa, me (Carrie), and eventually our amazing poet friend Shay. It has been a wonderful experience, and today I want to thank you all for being a part of it!"
