Muse

A Muse to Amuse
A charming class assignment titled a "Muse to Amuse"; whereas, the objective was to create a personal 'muse' (a force personified as a woman, who is the source of inspiration for a creative artist). I initially named her 'Amira-Mor'; during contemplating the name change to 'Leonor'; yet finally her name is 'Leonora'.   Did I mentioned, Leonora is a Mob Wife.
