little french girl

(with apologies to e.e. cummings.)

i want to write

a sentence (not
quite a poem) for
you Marie

thebreathlesslykinetic

a flurry a flash of dark
eyes and hair and
oh
that
smirk

everybody's best friend
the bridesmaid (but never the

bride)

your self your self your perfect self
cuddly and cute
forced to change it (sadness)
and so you did

they put you on a rollercoaster
without a safety belt
and were shocked when
you

fell

off

You have captured Marie and how she makes us feel. Well done.
