Not Anne but Gabrielle

Premium Member I Wonder What Anne Frank Would Say
Anne* Frank's earthly life, coldly cut short, yet, in our hearts and minds, she always lives, as, it seems, her spirit no one could thwart, nor the humanity her message gives. Sorry if I misrepresent the words that emerged from her brave and precious pen. I note it was not her who spoke of herds, and...

Anne
It was the beautiful Anne who bore the secret to his smile, Maybe the wrinkle of her eye when she smiled, The beautiful Anne was a blessing in disguise, She was the heartbeat of his life, To him she was the painter of life in disguise, The floor she walked was kissed by him, He was the happiest man when Anne...

Anne Girvan's Decree
At the heart of Marescaux Road’s Maroon and Gold Lived a timid girl with dreams yearning to unfold. An inner-city teen with a spirit aglow Yet hidden in shadows, her potential lay low. Then entered a teacher with passion ablaze A beacon of hope, guiding through life’s maze. With eyes full of kindness and words like a song She saw through the...
