Heya Brandy, do you know something, I have learned so much more, from what people don’t say, than what they do, A painted smile admits nothing, however so much is hiding behind it, a very deep succinct message here, yet it speaks in volumes, brilliant, cheers David

Hi David, your thoughts hold so much truth. Sometimes it's what you don't say, that gives what you're thinking away. How you are feeling. Actions speak louder than words. Thank you for reading this scribble of mine. My best to you. ~ Brandy

The black behind the red, the wicked show and tell. Why does ugliness always rear its head at a time of peace? Be brave Brandy, remember, there are many of us here who will always support you. Love and Hugs , Maria

Brandy Nicole

Dear Maria, the wicked are always on the prowl- seeking the weak. It is easy to influence them, to steer them away from the truth. This concerns me. Thank you for your kind words and your support. I am doing well and I am being strong. My best to you. Hugs and Love, Brandy

Woah.... I've not been on here for a while .. but Tommy told me about your poem and wanted me to pass on the comment below. "Sadly, social media is the perfect lair for the insincere and for those who hide what they are or how they really feel. I was occasionally villified by some who resented me for just being me, no smoke or mirrors. I am who I am and will always be true to myself, as you dear Brandy are to yourself and others. Wishing you and all poets of good heart the very best."

Brandy Nicole
Date: 12/15/2020 6:56:00 PM

I am humbled. Thank you Tommy, for this insightful comment. So much truth within this statement. This goes beyond even Social Media. I know that you understand. Thank you for always being You. I appreciate you, your kind words and wishes. Many Wonderful Blessings to you my dear friend. ~ Brandy

No need to be alarmed, I am doing well. Thank you for asking, Silent One. I hope all is well in your world. ~ Brandy

Your words offer a bit of caution, Brandy. True, the painted smiles can sometimes be very deceiving but if you look deep into one's eyes you can see their soul. Nicely written my sweet friend. Hugs, John

Brandy Nicole
Date: 12/14/2020 8:12:00 PM

Thank you, John. Yes, be not decieved by a Painted Smile that spills out sweet words. Looking deep into someone's heart- is how you can see their true character. You and your thoughts are appreciated. Hugs, Brandy

Much intrigue in painted smiles --a brilliant write, Brandy. Every word so preciously placed and every word so succinctly participates. Into my FAVES.

'Wicked' is the operative word for me --- yet with a trace of a smile... Enticing verse Brandy! Alluring and Lurid, Gershon

Brandy Nicole
Date: 12/14/2020 7:42:00 PM

Wicked can hold a few different meanings indeed. Some find that kind of smile exciting. Seems you do. :) Thank you, Gershon. I appreciate you and your thoughts. ~ Brandy

"A game of wicked show and tell"--indeed, that's what painted smiles are. That phrase is a perfect summation, Brandy (but you already knew that). Hugs, Paul

Brandy Nicole
Date: 12/13/2020 7:55:00 PM

Yes, you are correct on that. I already knew. Thank you, Paul. You and your thoughts are appreciated. Always. Hugs, Brandy
