pink spirit

with her eyes politely averted
concerned about all things
she patiently waits - considering

with her optimistic heart
dearly holding the promises
she risks action - hopeful

with a toss of the head
and words sharply sounding
she seeks direction - angry

with difficulty and from hurt
and too many memories
she makes new beginnings - bravely

from chaos she diligently re-orders
the world into her pink listings

a young/old woman who came a while to be with us. who was happy when there was no good reason and earnest when there was.
