Fragile, furry, female.
Late, lovely, loved.
Bright, bashful, beckoning me to unfurl.
Open, obedient, opinionated.
Talkative, talented, tasteful.
Thoughtful, thoroughly thrilling,
Leaving me thunderstruck with thanks.
Mindful, modest, mirthful.
Fettered by fastidiousness, and fear of flaws
. . . Yet . . .
Coincidentally canty and courageous.
Indecisive about independence
Confident and concise when
Your heart fills contemplating canine companions.
Child, you broke me in so many ways
Perfect sentences dropping from your mouth
Stunning, snarky, sullen.
Prim and protective, do you feel your power?
Blooming, blossoming, burgeoning
Steadfast. Strong. Shining.
I anxiously anticipate awesomeness.
