Alice Does Not Know the Meaning of Alopecia Areata

alice sits in a field of sunflowers i catch her in a deep state of admiration i never see her smile so i just shake my head and smile here....alice does not know the meaning of alopecia areata in this field, the sunflowers hug alice back in this field, she feels like the most beautiful six year old girl in the world it brings me to tears almost to see her so at peace with life and herself not wanting to disturb her reverie, i turn around quietly to leave not even five seconds later, i feel a tug on my shirt alice is looking up at me with her beautiful brown puppy dog eyes she knows that i know i know that she knows i simply say 'orange cream slushie' she shakes her head rapidly and gives me a big, bright snaggletooth smile i make alice queen for the rest of the day she gives me the best hug i will ever have in my life unbeknownst to her, alice will always be Queen for the rest of MY days....
