Held by illusion's grasp
Shackled in painful confine
Imprisoned in coveted care
Time, purpose, call and command
Set free the souls and hearts of man.

Hi Marie,
If you don't mind I would like to ask you if that photo in your profile is really yours?
I really liked that.... You are beautiful...
Thank you for sharing my words. I am pleased that they have spoken to you - that is indeed the intention. And YES, what is posted is a recent photo of me. Your compliment is most appreciated.
Best always,
Rose Marie Raccioppi
