She walks with roses in her hair.
In the world, without a care.
She walks with roses in her hair.
In the world, with something to share.
2
She knows things you 'd never know,
Eyes as black as a crow.
She knows things you'd never guess,
She loves you more and never less.
3
Take to flight the lovely sight of her,
Let it in.
Take to flight the sight of her,
Yes, her the wonderful sin.
Q: Where did you draw your inspiration for these silhouettes?
A: There is a book I have been reading where the beginning of each chapter has a poem.
Q: Can you share the name of the book you've been reading?
A: The book is called Princess Academy by Shannon Hale
Q: The first silhouette sounds like someone I'd like to know...what does she have to share?
A: She doesn't really have anything to share, I like to leave the reader hanging. I will leave that to the readers imagination.
Q: The last line of the third silhouette. "Wonderful sin". I kind of like the ring of that, what were you thinking?
A: Basically, it just rhymed but I thought it was neat that she looks wonderful but was a sin to people she knows.
Q: You seem to like words and poetry.
A: I write when I feel like it and want to really get into something a bit deeper.
Q: What excites you about poetry?
A: The wording and just having fun.
