Poem written for and submitted to “A Literary Character Clerihew” Poetry Contest, Andrea Dietrich, sponsor, January 6, 2025.
Holly twirled ‘round fancy soirees, Paul sighed at her champagne clichés. She thought love was a Tiffany box, He knew it was more like odd socks. Holly Golightly is the naïve, New York City socialite character in Truman Capote’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
