'a Top Secret, Secret'

I have been keeping secrets since I was a small girl mammoth, gigantic secrets little teeny, tiny, mini ones I am an expert at the hush-hush very good at top-secret tell me and my lips are sealed I will keep your disclosure under wraps you can confide in me I will never tell all the enormous, monster secrets or the itsy-bitsy itty-bitty peculiar ones- one day mother whispered in my ear a very particular secret she made me promise to keep it concealed to never tell even to close family that was years ago- people have tried to pressure me but I made a secret pact that day even though mother died the secret lives I have it tucked away in my head but just in case, I wrote it down on paper and put in a hidden place that only I know- it is a very specific thing that I keep in a hidden drawer down a secret passageway I bet you would like to know NEVER, it is classified, you can torture me and the answer is NO but I will give you a tiny, significant taste it is a special ingredient to a top SECRET recipe . . . ________________________________ December 5, 2017 Poetry/Free Verse/'a top secret, secret' Copyright Protected, ID 17-9688-60-0 All Rights Reserved.
