Hi

Hi          
I know that you don't know me
But I pass this way each day
I'm not so much to look at
At least that's what they say

But if you would, take time to see 
And just give me a chance
I'll show there's much more to me
Then seen at you've first glance

I heard I look much younger
In a softer evening light
and  quite a  little thinner
when I wear a pair of tights

My hair gets really fluffy
When I get it blown and dried
Perhaps a little sexy, too
When there's makeup 'round my eyes

But the better part of me
Is something you must find
Deep beneath my skin
In this love filled heart of mine


This piece was inspired by a poem written 
by Robert Andrew Lyle , named "Overwhelmed", 
and the comments that pursued.
