I want to be a wild woman
until the end of my days.
I will frolic and trollop
and saunter every which way.
I will sing loudly
and proclaim proudly
I love me I am me
I dig me I am free.
I want to be a wild woman
until the end of my days.
I wear purple
and lurid blue
I wear glitter and feathers
and polka dots too.
I will wear crushed velvet at 70
tie dye at 80
fairy wings at 90
a crown at 100.
I have comfortable shoes
and dirty bare feet
I have cloths of the rainbow
That light up my soul sweet.
I have wild hair
that makes me giggle and glow
I cut it in the garden,
my golden locks help
ferns to grow.
I have eyebrows that arch
with every emotion
I have kind eyes that
see love in every commotion.
I want to be a wild woman until the end of my days.
I know that
every single day
I am on this earth
I am a gift.
I want a spirit
as bright
and light
as the world’s biggest lighthouse.
I have a laugh
that doesn’t apologise
for being the body’s way
of exploding open with joy.
I want to be a wild woman until the end of my days.
I possess my power
my strength
my courage
my vitality
my sheer insistence
at being who I am.
I will laugh too loudly
dance crazily, proudly
make messes,
paint smear my hands,
my heart, my house.
I will be a wild woman until the end of my days.
I am
always have been
and always
will be
radiant
ridiculous
fabulous
hilarious
wonderful
glorious
floating
and
scrumptious.
I am a wild woman.
Always have been
And always will be
Until the end of my days
and beyond
Carouselling into the sky
like a firework’s lovechild
with Hayley’s Comet,
dazzling.
I light up this world.
I am a wild woman.
