“When the Heart Sees”
the battle’s been won
the victory’s mine

the battle’s been won
the victory’s mine
the new me lives
with a reflection of beauty

creating a view all its own
the appearance of change
may tremble one’s heart
but the beauty of age
has a time of its own
wrinkles
beauty
“Hidden”
some

make
up
hides
the
truth
“Every Path has a Story”
a road
two directions
one traveled one not
sometimes broken
sometimes rocky
sometimes smooth
a mountain Continue reading
