Princess Hair

Folder: 
2021

Her hair was not,

Her crowning glory.

In fact, it brought tears to her

Most every day.

So, she swept it, that morning,

All to one side,

Just to get it,

out of the way.

Its frail ends crinkling,

crinkling with old age,

old age and untidiness,all

swept, all swept loosly

in a one-sided long tail.

Her granddaugther

half-way through the

age of 2

saw

her grandmother's face.

She brightened and chirped,

Oh! her voice twinkled,

Princess hair.
