                 I wash my face
                                                                                      ecaf ym hsaw I

Dear Anne Lise, Fun, except for the lipstick ! Curios to know, I'd say your name is not English, is your poetry written in your native tongue ? Or is English a 2nd language. I cannot tell from the writting. Love Alan

Interesting poem -so simple yet so true. Ending the poem with word WHAT.... is really smart and gives a new dimension to it. Truly beautiful. Thanks for your uplifting comments on my poem Lost Hope, Anne. You have given hope to hopelessness. Who lives till the springtime, darling. -Mohammad
