Red Ribbon Sally
Red-ribbon apron drawn to her spine.
Tilted red hat in the air.
Black shining hair bundled in back
as Sally stands simple and fair.
Her mouth stout with beauty.
It's light the moon's surface.
Lips scored in finished pride
and grin drawing love to a purpose
Her stance like a doll.
Her shoulders gone limp.
Plush are her arms
and form without crimp.
Her smile soft as canvass.
Her spirit abroad.
Humble to a tee
and loved to a nod.
A skin lit and glowing.
A mask demure.
Her coco brown eyes
guiding and sear.
A face staring humble.
It's secrets inside.
Questioning; thoughtful.
A love to abide.
