The Secret Within

THE SECRET WITHIN

Eyes
-	dark, seductive
   Glancing at each face 
   with the hint of a smile 

Body
-	 sylphlike splendor
   Floating like an ocean liner
   on calm seas at twilight

She is the center of attention
   gliding effortlessly
   across the room.

Men drawn in by those hypnotic eyes.
What secret do they hold?

Beneath that lush exterior
   is a drag queen I am told.

                                Marion Sheridan
