My body is not a
Stick like shape
Favoured by magazines
Where
Anorexic
Lifeless
Models
Impossibly thin
Are paraded as
The perfect female!
.
My body has borne children,
My hips curve
My breasts are full
And my belly sags a little…
And yes
I’ll admit to
The occasional stretch mark!
.
My face is not
The flawless
Air brushed face
Of fashion magazines,
Where wrinkles
And blemishes
Are banned…
I wonder how much
Real face we see.
And how much is
Computer generated?
.
My face is not perfect,
I have laughter lines
Around my eyes,
And the odd dark spot
From being in the sun…
And yes
I’ll admit to
The occasional frown line!
.
I have a woman’s body
And I am NOT ashamed!
.
.
I will probably blog more about Lisa's book!
