Every face tells it's own story of happiness, sadness, joy or glory in the eyes, you can see kindness or pain these orbs are the windows to the brain eyes that crinkle in a smile you can feel mouth turned up alone, that smile isn't real expression lines on our faces, etched so deep are wrinkles in time, we,ve earned our keep some noses are big, some are small Mother Nature has chosen them all to fit the faces on which they're stuck if yours fits well, then you're in luck but if your nose just seems too brash a plastic surgeon will take your cash and if you'd like your skin more sunny a tanning salon will take your money but if you learn to love yourself as you are in your own life, you'll be the star why pretend to be another? celebrate yourself, like you...theres no other don't cover your beauty with a mask in your money, don't let the surgeon bask let self esteem shine through your eyes your beauty can't show through a fake disguise |

BRAVO!!! (smiles) I couldn't agree with you more, sweet friend, it's the beauty inside that matters most and not pulchritude, for love is all we need and what brings magic and harmony to all! (kiss on cheek) Soooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, God Bless You, this is a true gem of a poem! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lyra, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Lyra - This is very good answer to that poor, confused Jane girl in Cheryl's poem. Though, I have asked Cheryl to set me up with her.lol The more confused the better. Nice writing. Dave |

Thanks Joanna, We are certainly all unique, I would love to be beautiful enough to never need makeup or never have to do anything to my hair.....I think it would be great to just get up in the morning, wash my face and be ready for the day....but, I think that the woman who could do that would be the most unique of all. copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Lyra, really cute reply to Pretty Woman. It's a good thing I like myself the way God made me cause cash flow is low. Cheryl |
