Tender Whispers from the Heart – January finish

The Scars of Life – Aminata Sow Fall

I have finished my January poem for the Tender Whispers from the Heart class. The theme was New Beginnings.

Aminata Sow Fall is a Senegalese poet. She writes in French, but I have used the translation.

The linen is an antique torchon (tea towel) and I used Au ver á soie perlée in shade 171.

It’s my hand-writing. I used a frixion pen, ruled lines, and then wrote the poem.

I am not sure about the buttons. I wanted a bit of decoration, but not too much, for me, it was all about the words.
