I Always Wanted A Woman’s Neck
you know the one where the clavicle is raised slightly and you can see the heartbeat,
see the beauty in the firm bone, see the thin skin pressed lightly upon the neck.
I always wanted to have this neck but now that I am woman, now that my time has come
I see that it is only flesh, full of imperfection and wanting and
small blemishes.
but my necklace says “LIVE“ and I do
For I am beautiful just the way i am.
thanks CLMama , for making me this gorgeous necklace!

Beautiful.
that’s a beautiful neck you have there, lady!
I like that in B & W very much.
If only every woman could see herself as complete and perfect because of the imperfections. This is a wonderful picture and your thoughts are wonderful as well.
our imperfections stand out the most to ourselves! gawd does that make sense??? :dancingcow:
You’re a lovely woman.
:big-smile:Lovely!!!
Love that!
nice neck, indeed!
it’s a heck of a neck!!
So lovely!
Beautiful neck and necklace! :flirty:
Beautiful!!! You are absolutely and completely beautiful just the way you are! I love the necklace.
Ah, but you do have a woman’s neck. I know you gets whispers of “nice sternocleidomastoid” all the time.
RYC: I actually thought of you missing MH, when I was writing my post, from an earlier comment. I think you were playing “Watching My Life Go By.” I’m stupidly emotional with music, and this has been one of those days. I’m going to go have a glass of wine, make some soup and play “Life on the Double Planet” on surround sound.
I always wanted nice toes and feet and mine are…uuumm…not nice. At all.
You are every inch, a lovely woman.
I think you have a lovely neck. :love:
You are so beautiful.
Ah, what a gorgeous neck!
Gorgeous neck. Beautiful Necklace. And awesome song.
Aw, I can not believe I got a Julie-picture! Thank you – so glad you like it. Of all people I know (in real life or through the blog world), you truly LIVE every day so magically. For you, it is the norm. You remind people to see the beauty in all of it. Thank you for that. And you have a darling neck, by the way
. I always wished I had freckles!
love it!
I think you have a beautiful neck! The lighting is fantastic and I love the composition- great photo!
