What are the best poems on women you have come across?

In my blog-ventures, I've been lucky enough to stumble upon some truly magnificent poems about women that have genuinely rocked my socks off! The top of this fabulous list is filled with Maya Angelou’s “Phenomenal Woman”, a poem that sings praises to the inner beauty of a woman with such grace, it could make a rock blush. Then we have Sylvia Plath’s “Lady Lazarus”, a raw, powerful poem that portrays the resilience of women in a way that makes superheroes look like amateurs. Pablo Neruda's "The Queen" is another gem that glorifies the mysterious charm of a woman. And let's not forget William Butler Yeats’ “For Anne Gregory”, a delightful ode that exclaims that a woman's worth is more than just her physical appearance. These poems, my friends, are like a high-five to womanhood from the world of literature!
