Poem
Wait until you meet Lucinda Shaw Curious how many said this to me. People reported her with a bit of awe, Forecasting maybe I would fully see. Depth of her soul which was unusually old. I did too. She was a curiosity, quite bold. This girl was quite an unkempt sight. In a few words I knew she was extremely bright. She gave her free opinions in every way, She never tried to squelch an ounce of her light. I began fully understanding my new protégé. Lucinda had a laugh like the devil’s caw. Much more uninhibited than I could ever be. Her Bohemian ways certainly not a flaw. Charming, whimsical, they uplifted me. On this changeling, I was completely sold. I let her be, did not try to poke or mold. Jealous posers alluded she was not right. Somehow saw her genius as a personal blight. I helped her push that ridiculous boulder away. Feeling irritated that she had experienced that slight. I began fully understanding my new protégé. There was absolutely nothing remotely blah, Teaching her suited me in every way during afternoon tea. This clever young above-normal-thinking woman Lucinda Shaw Her imagination was pronounced and free. I now recognized her integrity and character as gold. Her personality a story that absolutely must be told. Over the “ologies”, we became extremely close and tight. Formed an unbreakable bond full of right and might. She listened with her heart and her soul every day. Her mind encumbered as a Mary Poppin’s kite. I began fully understanding my new protégé. My appreciative bray became a loud heehaw. I was opening up to her amazing world you must agree. Listening to the antics of my darling new student Miss Shaw. Did not confine myself to polite socially-accepted tee hee. Nothing in my mentee was frigid, hidden or cold. After her, my long-lived career I could easily fold. My protégé shows quintessential promise and light. Some professors had gulped, tried to take out a bite. Never asked about these misunderstandings, dourness gray. Let her uninhibited flow of thought go, it felt totally right. I began fully understanding my new protégé. You think I’m funny? You should hear my ma. She said this with a remarkable dollop of glee. Humble at moments is our lovely Miss Shaw. Once again, delighting and surprising me. The intense soul coming through her is decidedly old. She is powerfully wise with a heart of gold. We have never had a disagreement or any kind of fight. Our relationship is oh so forever solid and tight. I admire her propensity to learn, think, and play. Will forever be amazed at Miss Shaw with her inner light. I began fully understanding my new protégé.
