If She Were an Island

This original piece depicts how incredibly amazing we are as women.

We are so much more than we are given credit for. We're already beautiful and unique, just imagine how much more we'd be if we were an island... 

If she were an island, she'd be a very popular extrovert, and a lover of people. She'd make herself accessible to many, and she'd reside in the center of the ocean. She'd often welcome large volumes of visitors the option for short-term and extend stays. Her arms, legs and the outer part of her back would be sand and often filled with and enjoyed by many visitors. The right side of her body would be enjoyed by families, and the left side would be for adults only. Her hair would consist of an afro filled with greenery. In the center of her back, would be a nice small body of water, designated for the kids.  It would also serve as the divider between the adults only side of the island and the family side.  Her butt and hips would be greenery, and hills, great for hikes.

If she were an island, she'd be an attractive introvert. She'd be small and secluded, and only available for short visits. She'd be more like an exhibit than a place to stay. Visitors would be intrigued by her beautiful and unique face, which would be charcoal grey sand, complemented by her black sand lips. The finishing touch would the hijab wrap shaped greenery that surrounded her head, and definitely off limits to the public. 

If she were an island, she'd be a cute ambivert, and perfect for a day trip. Some parts of her would welcome visitors, and other parts, not so much. Her hair would be greenery in the shape of a perfected curly afro, which would be off limits to visitors, and only adored from afar. Her face, neck and ear would be beautiful golden caramel sand, and great for short visits. Her ear would be where most would go for seclusion. Her lips would be black sand, and partly separated by a small body of water, and like her hair...off limits to visitors, and only to be admired from afar.
