Horne of Plenty

A beautiful lady is an accident of nature. A beautiful old lady is a work of art. - Louis Nizer

Stunning. Regal. Elegant. Graceful. Eloquent. Diplomatic. Pure class. The Genuine Article. Respected. I could go on, but I don't believe the words yet exist to sum up the magnificence of this iconic woman. Her beauty shone from deep within. I'm finding it difficult for my mind to conjure up anyone who aged more gracefully or will be as timeless as the great Lena Horne. She has moved on to her own Cabin in the Sky. In life and death, she is an authentic testament to how truth does not necessarily supersede beauty or vice versa; but can in fact walk hand in hand. A lady to the very end. Rest her soul.

So true. Ms. Horne was a very classy and graceful lady... only if some women would realize how much power they give away being unladylike. Keep on sharing your knowledge... Lady Bug
