Vanity
Release to others
the image of your face
you can never see it
on your own
Mirrors and camera lenses
distort the truth
Choose instead, reflections
from a still blue pond
to paint your best likeness
when the wind
~~~~~~~ ripples up
~~~an odd and puzzling portrait
of the beauty~~~~~
~~~~~~you are searching for

Born and raised in " America's finest City" received BS degree in nursing years ago... main career besides wife and motherhood ( and now a grandma)was as a hospice RN for 18 years...Take great joy in finding the good in all things and believing that " No Thing is Ordinary" the title of my blog. I am working on a children's picture book story named R-Qu.. a rock falls of his mountain. Writing poetry is one of my happiest things to do. Yoga, water aerobics,, gym exercise and walking our wheaton terrior, Finley, with my husband Jim are favorite things...oh yes...singing in the choir at Church and recognizing God as #1... are most important... I also have a home based business with magnetic and far intra red health care products..peace to all who read this, Love, Jeane
