Friends, I wanted to recite this one into my phone but found something better.
Please enjoy.
Thanks for being here. I wish you miracles.
I’m a simple woman who dares to see the beauty in ordinary. I’d love to connect with you and like pen pals, I want something beautiful to blossom between us. Will you join me? Selma is my middle name. Its meaning—peaceful, complete, are euphoric affirmations I like to think of myself as having. They compliment the joy I feel when I write. I sincerely hope you decide to join me on my writing journey. I Wish You Miracles.

My feelings exactly, Patricia.

those words are so profound. I read this in literature class at 13 years of age, and I have never forgotten it. Brought back many fond memories. Thank you for sharing, my dear.
Wow even at 13 you were a receptacle for greatness. Wow.
Thanks for this lovely comment.

At the 10:20 mark, this link shows how the sonnet would have sounded in the original pronunciation (OP) if you’re interested, Selma. One good share deserves another, wouldn’t you say?! 😊💝

Performed at around 2:00 in Shakespeare’s time/ making direct contact with the audience/ Something about working our way back to Shakespeare rather than dragging him into the 21st Century—I enjoyed knowing about the passion invested in the pursuit of something wonderful. How lovely this is. Thanks Dora. I appreciated this so much. Blessings.
