A Little Life

Get Thee To A Nunnery!

Make me a medallion please

Cherished symbol of cheerful sacrifice

Patron saint of lost Labradors

Trusted steward of fledgling bluejays

Proud recipient of the cat distribution system

Expert in knee bandaging, free kisses included!

Illustrious chef, my art sublime

Taco Tuesday with lime-pickled radishes

I’m fancy like that

Mother Superior of the esteemed

Mismatched sock nunnery

Modest veil; my silk bonnet

The battle against frizz valiantly fought

Sadly slain on the battlefield of

Lunch boxes left in backpacks
