As a byway ahead grows quite dim late evening ‘s radiance slowly pales away --- This fiery yet compassionate woman brushes luster into her hair and retraces the gleam of Mother Mary's pledge so she could face her courage to raise consciousness from unknown whispers; praying that daybreak would find a clearer path back home to empowerment... a reminder that though one’s world is vast and diverse, she is connected to every female through ' gender balance': And through a need for equality, an inner light-wave cuddles her in the soft of a one-universe's halo, anointed by the gods, the earth, and of freedom itself. ------------- March Poems, Old Or New For Prizes Part 3 Of Easter Series For Carolyn Devonshire's Contest ------- 'Gender Balance' is one of the themes for International Women's Day

Nette, if envy is the highest compliment, then I can say I envy your lyrical touch, the consistent beauty of your diction in this as in virtually all your poems. You were born to be a poet, girl!
