My soul lives in a world where romance rules
is this a chromosome thing
something young girls dream about
dressing as a princess or fairy
slowly maturing with age
from make believe dresses and crowns
to the words
penned so carefully of romance and sorrow
for yes in a good story
romance is something that must crawl
through the briar patch
to be judged and weighed
before the appreciation of happiness rests
upon your heart.
My in-progress story has
risen from the characters of "When the War Is Over"
picking up the story of Josie's daughter, Abigail
as she deals with life and her dreams
taken from a wholesome upbringing and life
where acceptance and love
is part of her self-confidence and strength
into a man's world of monarchs
money and infidelity
in 1885
Abigail's past and all she knows
is shaken by a series of events that should bring
her to question everything
how will she deal with so many emotions
as love sweeps her off her feet.
