The Lonely Orphan Girl

The Lonely Orphan Girl

What era is this.? I look and I'm
enchanted..
by this Miss, how daring,
Delightful in her dress..
of pointed collar..
All corners of the world
to discover on one canvas..

Easily she could step into
our life...
Young lady you were born
too soon,
You should be with us ..
to break new frontiers..
for all women..

At the Eastern Front..
you made your mark..
in ink...you took
the industrial world 
by storm..
With your Iron Clad
fist..
But for the evilness of
hungry men..
Your trust was betrayed..

The first undercover
journalist..you flew
over the Cuckoo"s nest..
before the shadows
we're cast..
on silver screens.
you would be top class..

Sweet modern Miss..
you could be..
a neo- goth or a 
young romantic..
You are certainly not
of that times mold...
Nelly Bly..beautiful.
Enigmatic..

Being Me

A fitting tribute to an amazing woman. Definitely ahead of her time...well, we say that, but if it wasnt for some people to be ahead of their time then humanity would almost certainly be stalled. Forever stuck in a time. 

Great work Pauline. Love this x

I didn't realise how much she had done, for woman kind..she invented a better milk Churn...plus undercover journalism...it's fantastic...and being a reporter in the first World War...amazing...
thanks Gregg
