Crowned in Lime


she stood out from the rest 
a shapely beauty crowned in lime
she walked tall and languid
meeting life with her heart
for she knew the treasure
of life
met with an intimate stance
~


this is my first time to join Paint Party Friday
perhaps you would like to join in too!

  9. My first time, too! So nice to meet you :)

    Love the lime! I've only ever done one painting with hair that was not of a regular hue...and it was seaweed green for a mermaid. I really like this color...hmmm...lime...the possibilities :)

    Crowned in Lime, so cool! She certainly would stand out and may start off a new trend. I love seeing people with pink and red hair. Would love to see someone with lime hair!
    Brighten the day so much.
    Your poem is so beautiful to go with her!
    Hope you have an amazing weekend!
    Lovexx

  30. This is just beautiful Tammie...sort of strange, as I was doodling last night and drew a butterfly lady that has this color hair and I swear she is YOU! In fact when I share her for Sunday sketches I will mention that she reminds me so much of you!

    Smiles and hugs - I wish I could paint! I am determined to try soon!
