Making You Something Steampunk
She decided to gift me something done in steampunk.
I was thinking owl, cat, dog, or perhaps dragon or hat.
It will be earrings, a pin or a pendant, she told me.
Don’t ruin the surprise, I told her.
She gave me a gorgeous steampunk cicada.
I would have never guessed this would be my present.
I had never had a cicada, but I liked this one instantly.
She knew me better than I knew myself.
