I live my life in beige and ecru,
and hide my scarlet threads
from the eyes of strangers.

None stranger than my own.

I really like this and it says so much with a few words. Beige is nice and calming but far more beautiful with a few scarlet threads.

Nan,

I think we glimpse those scarlet threads ... let's pile more beige over them.  Whoops!  They are still peeking.  Uhoh.  Bring on the beige - it will never completely cover the brilliance of the scarlet within you.

Loving this,
Alison

Very captivating little gem!

The elegance of beige matches quite well with that touch of red hue even if it exists only underneath and blushes the cheeks!

This poem is probably more true than most I've written, and I appreciate the responses.  You all make me smile.
