A Seguidilla For You

 

Yes, it’s me!


defects make people human

[suspect you knew that]

while anecdotes keep them real

[I have wild stories]

must be obvious

[for better or worse]

how very human I am

    Dearest Helen,
    Indeed, being ALL human and for better or worse; not hiding behind a MASK!
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    I really love the use of parenthesizes, which made the poem a fun read. Actually being aware of your flaws is not that easy.

    I think you'd have the best stories to tell. The follies are my favourite kind.
