Mantilla Graced

soft cinnamon eyes of lovely, fair senorita
auburn hair angelically hid by lace mantilla
when presented to her by fiancé smitten
to wear before the heavens as it is written
nothing could be woven, nor more beautifully grace
a woman's visage, than a lovely mantilla of lace

I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

Kari dear heart, what can I say, the Sun shines again, with joy and seen through lace. I love this one utterly totally wonderful.


              

Take care love as always

Sunshine,

Simply beautiful writing.  The picture is stunning.  They compliment each other well.

Elegance defined.......very beautifully written by you.

If you find yourself stranded in a storm
...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together
