A solemn vow, now firmly SWORN, A heavy truth that...

Dante Gabriel Rosetti immortalized his lovers: the strong, graceful and voluptuous gentlewomen who could have been countesses and baronesses. Indeed, their beauty would stand the test of time.

Don't Change You

Her Smile Brings Me Joy
When I first spoke to you, you were quiet and answered first with a smile that was calm. How come beauty comes in a simple act of random kindness?
