Analysis of Beautiful helen
Vincent Larcher 1969 (Saltibus)
I thought I had met this girl but in reality she found me and fell in love with me before I fell in love with her,
She saw and knew everything about me before I knew little about her yet she named me after herself,
She is so beautiful her hair is all green and wild as her clear eyes is like a waterfall when she has always showed me her kindness which made me fell in love with her many years after,
She is so caring that she always looked out for me by softening my falls so I won't get hurt and again she gave me my identity in life, society and in this world,
She like to show off her curves, her pitons as tourists can't get enough photo of her, takes early morning walk on her shores when she gives far more to mankind who walk into her life line,
She hides nothing from no one whiles the world admires her Sulphur springs, her waterfall, her sea shores, rivers and her inhabitants,
The place that witness my birth and her name is Helen of the West yet better known as St. Lucia, situated in the West Indies,
She named us all from the Island Lucians and I am proud to be a Lucian for my name is Vincent Lucian
