It takes more than a simple mind
to understand the real me
to comprehend each facet
of my personality.
The myriad of dreams I see
the images I create
the pictures of this world
with words I like to paint.
One day the WhiteRose blooms
but as any flower, she fades
then the real Anne comes out
another time, another day.
Anne likes to be whomever
whatever fits her on that day
and she grew tired of being sorry
for being made that way.
I am who I am
who I always intend to be
no matter the name, or label
I will always be me.
Dressed up in fancy clothes
or kickin' around in my blue jeans
still the artist lives inside
and still she sees my dreams.
This release from bondage came
in acceptance, and in love
of just exactly who I am
not what I am thought of.
I like the Anne who is many
she lives my dreams for me
and she is the strong force
that holds together reality.

Exactly...Anne...and you are all that you

roses, or the Anne of Poetry...

Thanks for the insightful autobiographical sketch, Anne...
It sure is nice to meet one of my favorite poets.
