I imagine my mind as if an egg, and inside is the true essence of me; more than just the power to move a leg, inside is my past and thoughts filigree. So, I think I will decorate my mind, with mauve images and patterns whimsy; I will be a fancy egg quite refined, invisible- but I will let you see. Then, you will know my personality, a girl subdued who likes to whirl and twirl; I live my life with whimsicality, but, in my mind sadness does unfurl. Within is a path not always happy, but I am a sweet egg- not unhappy. __________________________________ February 22, 2018 Poetry/Sonnet/Mind The Wet Paint Copyright Protected, ID 18-9964-82-01 All Rights Reserved.

ahh, this is so sweet, Constance. You decorated your egg eggs-actly right. (yeah, I went for the bad pun). I will have to do MY "mind the wet paint" poem as free verse because as of yet, i have NO free verse for Hamilton's contest and free verse might be neat for this contest!!
