from behind the fan she reveals only a hint of who she is is she a mystery? an enigma wrapped in a question? no, she is there. . . you only have to look she inspires, she teaches opening her heart to those who are without love they give to her she gives to them browneyes reflecting hate into love browneyes reflecting they peer into the heart they see more of you than you wish to reveal but they hide more from you than you'll ever begin to see ---------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Are we going back a few decades Sven? When it was quite fashionable for the ladies to carry a fan. Whatever the case it sounds like we have a very intelligent and mysterious lady here. Very good writing I like that mysterious angle and how she is going to look right into the soul of others without revealing herself entirely...Good, good good great! |

Wow! Sven, I am so touched, I think I'm speechless! You did an EXCELLENT job on this challenge (writing a poem about me). This one really knocked my socks off. I am honored to be seen by you in this way. I only pray that others see me in this light as well. The line "reflecting hate into love" is SUPERB! It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E. Henley |
