Poem

An almost full length body mirror propped up against the chair
She sat quietly on her pedestal of hope
Hoping that one day she too could look like the movie star
That graces the glossy pictures of the magazines
She sits to ponder what does it take to  exude the beauty of a woman
What does it take to exude grace and intelligence

A still quiet voice spoke so tenderly in her heart...

"My child I made you in the image of Me. I made you in the image of your Heavenly Father and you are beautiful just the way your are. Take your makeup, your Hollywood dreams, and put them away. Continue on the path of being my beautiful young child. Strive to love unconditionally. Strive to give food to the least of these. And above all the things that brings beauty to the world, a heart of your Fathers to please."
