*This is dedicated to all of my fellow Virgos! I hope that this is mostly true for you. It was fun to write. Anyone who replies to this tell me your sign as well, it will be interesting to know* P.S: They say that the best love matches for Virgo is Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces! This can also be a CHALLENGE to anyone else who would like to write about their sign, you can use any style, and it can be short and simple or long and in depth. ~VIRGO~ There she stands in an ardent field of green, the virgin: a symbol of purity and fertility open and welcoming to her fellow human being she often wears a reassuring smile upon her face, hers is an easy-going, compassionate nature like no other, admired the world over for her warm sensuality and grace With a sharp, intellectual mind that delights in all experiences she views the world as a vast canvas that she can paint on, for, even perfection can be improved in her eyes, with the touch of her hand, all things once vexations to the spirit are gone, she is a uniquely gifted artist with a meticulous eye for detail who can make anything beautiful and poetic, yes, many men will agree that this fair maiden has the magic touch Ruled by mercury, communication is her mantre, friends and family often turn to her for counsel for, she is always sympathetic and strong but, hidden in her heart are worries and woes that she dares not reveal, as to not burden anyone, stubborn and independent, she must venture to find her own happiness alone She chooses friends and mates with care, a worry-wart and a perfectionist at heart, she is critical of herself and others holding herself to high standards and demanding no less of those around her, organized, logical and scientific, she would even analyze the simplest sneeze and her love of music and fine arts will send her gladly into dreamy reveries, she possesses charm, sweetness and wit but, beware - as patient and understanding as a Virgo is when crossed she will throw a proverbial fit! When the world sleeps, her quick-silver mind never takes a rest, she searches endlessly to find the deep meanings and answers to life, living and planning for the future is what she does best, the Virgo is down-to-earth and satisfied with the tried and true and although she seems unbreakable and reliable she's really very sensitive and emotional, arguments, rejection and injustice makes her blue Shy, reserved and secretive at first she hides a wild streak, for, this woman ain't no prude like most may think, pass a few tests and earn her trust and soon you will discover her soft, sentimental side, she'll take you to new heights and new wonders, an energetic spirit, she'll lead you on a intense ride She's the master of wordplay, imagination and humour keeping her audience entertained through the night, hard to please, proper and critical she is branded, she's also very spiritual and a hopeless romantic who secretly longs for a tender, loving man to forever hold her tight Sensual, rather than sexual, love to her is an all encompassing experience for the mind, body and soul, a true romatic, a dreamer, convinced that soulmates exist, her heart is pure and it's making love, not sex to a Virgo, do you have what it takes to love her? to find her prince charming, she's cross the longest bridge, climb the highest mountain and swim the deepest sea, when in love, she is dramatic, giving and passionate for, a Virgo's unwavering devotion will last an eternity Neither daring or flamboyant, she values simple beauties, tradition and honesty, she is the essence of sweet modesty with a classic elegance, indeed, she is the true goddess of astrology, a sometimes paradoxical and mysterious being, both practical, guarded and thrilling at the same time, she is a captivating enigma with many pieces to her puzzle, for, she lures you in to drink of her like a fine wine The sixth sign of the zodiac, this is the Virgo *By Melissa Honeybee* < !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 09-03-2000).] |

Yeppppp sounds like the Virgos are all they claim to be and what a wonderful representative they have in you. Loved it much and as for me....The ruling sign that all others look to...LOLOL....Yep that is right..AQUARIUS for sure. The one of future knowledge with the visions of nastalgia living in the heart. |

Hi Melissa Honeybee... what a great poem this is, and I do appreciate you writing it, as I wanted to know more about Virgo's! I have a new friend who is a Virgo, and this was a great read for me. Thanks for listing the compatible signs, as I'm a Scorpio, so maybe............ Great writing, my friend!! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Thank you everyone for liking my representation of Virgos! I hope that others will take the challenge. This was originally supposed to be a short and sweet poem, but, being the Virgo that I am, it had to be perfect and in-depth. And Sven, I should have known that you were a fellow Virgo too  Take care, Melissa Honeybee The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |

From one proud Virgo to another - thank you Martie! I'm glad that you saw some of yourself in my poem. We are all unique and possess qualities different than that of our astrological sign, but for the most part we are defined by the sign we are born under. And my birthday was September 10 Happy birthday to you as well whenever it isTake care, Melissa Honeybee The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |
