Bit of Curls

Meredith Beyers

From “Suggestions”

FURIOUS little bit of curls

Struggling against the gale!

Mad at God because the wind

Is stronger than her tiny body.

But little girl,

You do not have to!

Turn about,

And let it take you,

Fluttering, laughing,

Over the prairie,

Butterflying through the air.
