This exquisite poem is composed on the principle the perfectly crafted quatrain . The quatrain, or four-line stanza is the most common in English poetry.This poem-it seems to me-- is an example of the heroic quatrain of iambic verse rhyming a b a b. The theme of surface beauty with lack of beauty of inner-self is smoothly developed by a selection and combination of appropriate words resulting into pleasing imagery and explicit diction.The poet cleverly and subtly concludes with an impactive line warning the Reader to expect to learn more about the character portrayed in the poem: "her true colors will come to arise a surprise no one had expected." Who is this character ? makes the poem mysterious or enigmatic, as the poetess takes care not to give the Reader a clue..................LOL My rating for faultlessness is 10x10.

We would no doubtedly see a whole different world if all masks were pulled off at once...........we probably wouldn't recognize where we are.
