Penny Rich

Birth, with stars in her eyes, exploding with mirth. Mollycoddled, swaddled, passed off by nurses. Aperture opens, closes - checking out earth. The peacock calligrapher inks fair verses. Not bad for a Penny - they sold a circ worth. The switchboard oohs and ahhs as she converses. Under the sagacious skies, each phonation Recorded in babbles with their duration. 9/24/2022
