TWENTY OR LESS…#188

Copyright 2004 by:MARK V SHELDON


unadulterated veneer

hyperbolic smiles

beatific superficiality


mistrust politely endured


in your world

Good morning, Kacy.  Any which way I can...

Good day, Seymour.  Dart?  Sometimes it's an iron wrecking ball to a glass globe...  But as always, it comes down to perspective and frame of mind.  Seems though that it's getting harder nowadays to see the beauty for all its imposing opposites...

Mark...I never thought of my smile as exaggerated...
but, maybe some do.
Good one!

Mark, I hope this is just writing. I hate
for people to pretend something that isn't.
But, sometimes people do smile to keep from crying.
A very good thought provoking poem, Sir poet.

(sigh) I think it's alright to experiment with different fashions, just as long as the tones we talk in and the voice within are the same! (big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, critics and skeptics are just what's wrong I feel in this world, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Mark, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nancy, I can't imagine a smile on your countenance being artificial...  

Ethel, it's just observation and reflection -- a snapshot of one moment...  For every insincere grin there is a real smile.  We just need to maintain serenity...

Dixie...  at times...

Noah:  I prefer style to fashion, personally, but I agree -- let the inner person remain true to one's self...

Thanks, Grover -- isn't everything a paradox on this planet?
