Array ( [sid] => 125495 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Violet [time] => 2006-09-08 18:08:07 [hometext] => [bodytext] => *Violet…a youngster*

A beautiful, virtuous old soul, enters,
Ready?
Born into a life, of schooling,
She learns well…
Beaten hard,
Roaring *****,
Harsh reality…
Never to cry,
Never to Play,
Never to ask for anything,
Just get on with it.
Understand.

Accept your fate…

“Never”



*Violet…the adolescent*

A crushed, featureless, shadow,
Looks on with blurry eyes…
Her once complete jigsaw lies in tatters.
Long sleeves hide her pain
There is no sanctuary now,
No Refuge,
Her ruined mind has no more barriers to put up…

Hate yourself

Hate Them

Let bitterness envelop you.

Resign yourself to your fate…

“Never.”



*Violet…A young lady*

Weakened, but resilient.
“She is finally ready…”
Her strict lessons learnt:
Kindness, Compassion and Empathy…
“Look up sweet Violet,
You have been through much,
I will guide you through this,”
A torch is lit,
It burns bright, igniting her very soul,
The mountainous and crooked road left behind her, straight and clear in front,
Go forth, innocent Violet…



*Violet…a Woman*

A candle that could survive a hurricane,
Whips could not break her now,
Chains could not hold her,
She has the strength of a Lioness,
And her eyes sparkle with the brilliance that lies in her soul,
She is as awesome as the Sun,
And just as warm.
She Stands for the weak,
And Annihilates the powerful,
Her battle scars, she wears with pride,
Follow her and never give in,
She Survived,
She Won.
She Blossomed.

Hi topcat,

Now there's a surprise, a quadruple poem and in a not-so-usual form.

I liked your story though it tells quite a lot; a little bit of mystery wouldn't hurt and leaves something for the reader to think about.

But you definitely got some talent in your keyboard :-), liked a lot, never got bored.

An impressive journey for our young Violet, and a well structured chonological journey from youth to womanhood, naivity to maturity, victim to victor. it sounds like it was drawn from personal experience, which often brings out the best poetry.
