Gorgeous Loving Empathetic Woman

A gorgeous woman her heart was exceedingly pure She was selfless and godly But her birthmark scared off potential suiters Those who did not understand full beauty A loving woman She was patient and kind Her compassion struck a chord in many hearts They saw her for who she was Beyond the birthmark An empathetic woman she became a bride And a marvelous mother to six lucky children Who thought women without a birthmark were missing something The empathy and compassion of their loving mother

Ah, I like this a lot. I had a friend in high school who had a large red blotch all over one side of her face. Anyway, she became very success in her adult life. She was our football coach's daughter and begged to play varsity football, but, of course, back in my day that was not allowed. I have no idea why I shared all of that!!!!

I am enjoying it. My 13 year old granddaugher was the first female to play football on the Blue Valley Kansas football team in middle school, so maybe this is why you shared it.
