Bells for Hera silly poem by RestLeSs D

If you got to know me
You’d know I was sincere.
You’d see my gracious nature,
You’d know I bring you cheer.

I capture the affections
Of every living thing.
These friends that I encounter
Make my happy heart sing.

Just ask them, they will tell you
You have no need to mope.
I am a good and friendly lass.
I bring only smiles & hope.

There is a moral here somewhere,
Don’t judge the book by its cover?
Can odd appearances mislead you
To add prejudice to another?

Beauty is in the eye & heart
Not only of the beholder.
If we love ourselves as we are
Our growth will not be hindered.

Bells for her, bells for me.
Can you hear them singing
Bells for you, bells for me.
For us they will be ringing. . .

Oh I have went too far this time… LOL. I took some photos of my son’s sweet girlfriend and she has kindly allowed me to play with them as I wish. I created this image for the pure fun of it. When I was finished I showed it to her and she said she loved it!!! I am so happy that she has such an open heart and has let me create this completely fun and silly image. . . I hope you enjoy it.

My dear Ashlin posed for me. Original photo taken with a Nikon CP8400. Post processing in PSCS2 using the liquify filter. Painted on various layers and overlaid with the Fractalius filter.

Hello, I am Rhonda aka RestLeSsD & I am a graphic & web designer. My main media is Photoshop & Dreamweaver. I create 3D art & images using Fractals from Incendia & Apophysis. I use these in my creations formed in PS. I also use Picture Window Pro and Paint Shop Pro.
I am also a poet & I have been writing since I was about 10 years old. Since being here on the Bubble I have fulfilled my goal of illustrating my poetry & writing as well as writing new works…
