Letter to my Daughter at Forty

There is no wrong way to have a body.
You needn't be botoxed, cool-sculpted,
all maybelline'd to be a queen.
Rise up from your half shell
heavy thighed, thick waisted
and battle scarred.
You remain Aphrodite,
Urania and Porne.
I am old and my belly sags
but my arms are strong
and I can still rock you.
I will untangle the knots in your muscles
and your hair.
I will anoint you with oil.
Celebrate yourself,
there is no wrong way to have a body.
