Trying To Love The Skin I'm In

Not too fat,
Not too thin,
Trying to love the Skin I'm In.

Hair too short,
Eyes too small,
Can't see past my nose at all.

Supermodel?
Not my bag.
Legs are stubby, biceps sag.

Why can't I
Look like them?
Because that's not the Skin I'm In.

Mirror image,
You're just fine.
Even if you are 29. . .+ (moving on. . .)

Lovable?
Absolute!
Husband, Children, Friends to boot :)

Never doubt,
Who I am.
Part of God's gigantic Plan.

When this
Uphill journey ends. . .
Will I love the Skin I'm In?
I sure hope so.
