I love the face! I feel, these days, we put too many labels on things, instead of truly describing someone. Like, they have a great laugh. Fantastic Gina!!!!!

All your depictions are beautiful and therefore in their own right they are lovely. As for the poem, depending on our own experiences we will interpret it differently to one another. Its easy to show the physical things in terms of the description but you have taken us deeper than that and I commend you for it. Thank you for a fantastic few days, sharing the poem, the view seen through your eyes and the twist at the end.<br />Have a wonderful weekend.<br />hugs {brenda} xoxBrenda Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10125808222761586493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5530097745086360181.post-77985082432612380942012-04-13T16:06:06.367+01:002012-04-13T16:06:06.367+01:00I don't know it by heart, but I know the poem ...I don't know it by heart, but I know the poem well, and I think you're on to something with your theory about her. I have to say, my first reaction when you said about the part with a description of her appearance was, "what? I don't remember any description of her appearance." I don't ever remember thinking anything other than that she was beautiful. As you pointed out though, there are several forms of beauty. And beautiful could mean anything from a fair young maiden to a dark old woman, and everything in between.Torizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04965005679599352165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5530097745086360181.post-16932378418666984102012-04-13T15:41:55.458+01:002012-04-13T15:41:55.458+01:00That beautiful castle.

I feel about The Lady looks, the same way I feel about the way people see other icons in myth whose descriptions have been that vague: I think they take the shape our eyes and heart give them. <br /><br />I love how you see and relate.
