The Wallflower Comments

Compression of bodies pushing forward in the nightclub bar, She is standing alone, just like another wallflower, ......touching.beginning with love and pain. A fine love story is incisively delineated. Thank you dear madam for sharing this gem.10

Your poetry is so real Hazel.....it's a joy to read.

So different from her everyday dream! Nice piece of work.

The duckling becomes a swan.. Even though I understood the poem when her beauty is recognised she blooms. A

Began in a sad note, but ended up in joy and fulfillment! How beautifully you have depicted the agony and the ecstasy of a girl in a night club and the painful truth of how inner beauty and goodness of heart are always overlooked! Full 10

Nothing like a country girl with real expectations.

Exterior beauty is given far too much credence these days, and the media are to blame for this in many ways. I used to buy a magazine called Psychologies which was supposed to make one feel better, but every page was crowned with air-brushed beauties, so I stopped buying it because it made me feel bad about myself. True beauty is within the soul. Good one Hazel.

These days everybody wants to be a celebrity and be famous for doing nothing, or they expect people to whisk them away to an exotic location like a movie star. But life is ordinary with ordinary people doing ordinary things and people who are plain ordinary sometimes have brief moments of greatness through an ordinary life. I have always looked for the ordinary girl when I was dating as I found those with ‘airs and graces’ too much trouble. A good poem Hazel.
