Calico Girl
Feline poetry inspired by magnetic poetry prompts.
Calico girl wonder'd free,
Through stones and by the river's lea
Amidst the green of moss and fern,
She danced, a sight for all to learn.
Like a white song, she pranced along,
Her movements light, her spirit strong.
And when a little prey she spied,
She crouched, she pounced, she conquered with pride.
But then, a sudden shift of mood,
Her sights set on a different food.
She turned to those who dared to pass,
And pounced on them with a mighty sass.
Her claws would dig in furniture fine,
And she would bask in her owner's whine.
For though her ways were wild and free,
She loved her life of luxury.
So let her roam and hunt and play,
For in her own wild way,
She brings joy to all she meets,
This calico girl, so full of treats.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.
