Pretty Ribbons
Jeanne a.k.a. "Mary"
When thoughts of pretty ribbons
Fell gently on my mind
Such portrait when painted
Was "one of a kind"
With blended strokes
In softest ivory
My color-laden brush
Portrayed her slowly
Her hair shined beautifully
From tender brushing
...When pampered by mommy
There was no need for rushing
Platinum curls clustered
In arrangement just so
With ends flowing softly
From center of bow
As I painted
She lingered
Linked only by trance
Was this little "Mary"
...was it she per chance?
