Silhouette of Jasminerose

What shall never be,
is bitter anger in my heart
Precious are life’s moments,
to waste in such misery

So I surround myself with those who truly love life
For kindness, gentle and caring thoughts,
will contagiously carry a smile

Poetic is my heart,
beating with romance and dreams,
wrapped in words of softness from within

Musical soul sings,
from an early age
as performing is my garden of Eden

Rainbows, children’s laughter,
or snuggled up, around a fire,
feeds happiness into my soul

Five foot five? Wearing high heels of course!!!!!
Love to laugh, create memories, love to listen

Once a brunette, Hey Looneyeclipse.. I’m a blonde!
It’s no secret that we do have more fun!
Black is my wardrobe,
pink roses make me smile
Brown eyes, brimmed with amazement for life

Ignorance is something I have trouble tolerating
Country living, as my privacy is enjoyed
Will stand my ground, very firmly when needed
Love my country, my four children and my man

So…sometimes I will vent,
Quiet, but outgoing
One more thing…
I tend to vacuum when I’m mad

Challenges in life, I won’t let bring me down
Won’t allow it,
I’ll be fine…
all is swell!

An abundance of friends, I cherish so much
So lucky to have crossed their paths
Cooking, baking, or just surrounded by nature
Simple pleasures are a treasure to me

All in all,
I simply enjoy life
As you read this silly little poem,
This is just, a little corner of me…
I’m just a woman,
still a girl
in a glance!

    Lovely

    Great Job. I understand you having trouble writing about your self. I myself don't always see myself as others do and it is hard to see the good that others do. You have done a wonderful job with this Jazzy, and it is extreamly good to meet you.

    *Go with God* my friend,

    Excellent

    I tried to write a poem about myself once and I know exactly what you mean - it is a very difficult thing to do - I thought this poem was charming, very feminine and I liked the soulful quality of this poem, how you celebrate the simple pleasures in life. I thought this was refreshing to read- good luck in the competition.

    It is hard to write about ourselves objectively, but you seem to have done it well. I love your positive approach to life...very inspiring. Got a chuckle out of 'vacuuming when you're mad' - I tend to scrub the sinks and toilets! Wonderful penning!

    awwwww LOL

    This is adorable and sweet....It is always difficult to write about ourselves! You have done a great job doing so! Meli made me write for a contest once and it was tough but fun in the end
    This does describe you to a T and LOL Tim will get a kick out of your reference LMAO
    Tammy (Angelic Love) thought it would be fun to do this to get to know each other and I think it is a good way! So everyone step in and meet My friend I call Jazzy

      lol Hi Lynda,
      I am glad that my poem brought you a few giggles Couldn't resist the Blonde comment for Tim
      It is very difficult to write about oneself and as you know me oh so well already, I must have rewrote this a few many times and this was the outcome..lol Had to add some humor!
      Glad you liked it and say thanks to Angelic love for the lovely idea!! As I love a good challenge!

      Jazzy
