I'Ve Made Up My Mind

I've made up my mind To be the girl I used to be, ah so fine A butterfly out in the sunshine Spin slow in the spiders silk web and dine Sit praying next to the praying mantis Making some fun rolling in the mud in Atlantis Flirt next to the hog and paint it on the canvas Kiss the ladybug upon its nose Let it take a wink at this green poet's toes I've made up my mind be picked up and hurled Round and be taken around the world Jump over the full moon Telling him life will all be alright soon I'm tired of taking my time I've made up my mind to give myself to you To be the girl I used to be, ah so fine 9/7/2022 just musing
