This is She


Originated from a great state

That of longhorns

and very proud

But stil not sure where she comes from

 

A military brat

has been over oceans

Carrier of much luggage

have seen Germany's Black Forest trees

 

Reinvented, recreated

in every single place

changing for so many people

left her often alone in each space

 

What's inside

an artist, a creative mind

viewing the world around her

what else is there to design

 

Ready to go on

If to become something more, she'd kiss a toad

Yes, a lover of nature and all beautiful things

brought to tears seeing a deer on the side of the road

 

Religious she is

Church most Sunday mornings

A happy spirit

Yet, somewhat in mourning

 

Quite the unique individual

Not hooked on every trend

She is a lover of life

Just truly wants hers

to finally begin.
