No longer was she "demur" she possessed so much confidence. She was the "cenynosure" for all the men in her small village" This beauty had came along way. She was a orphan at a young age and went through" ineffable" things to hard to express. One day she was given "panacea" and her life changed instanstanly. She became a lovely creature with "chatoyant" eyes". Not a trace of the" ingenue" woman she once was. Men were spellbound by her"melliflous" voice and her" lissome walk. I never tire of this touching tale because this amazing woman was my great, great grandmother. Alexis Y 5-15-16 Author's note this tale is pure fiction. Just my spin on Silent One's Challenge.
