Something About Her

Not 5 feet tall she does stand proud, 
And trust me she can work the crowd. 
When job’s all done
She’s up for fun, 
And that comes with laughing out loud! 

Her children are grownups in fact, 
All trying to clean up their act. 
Bond not broken, 
Love unspoken - 
Maternal instincts still intact! 

She knows the chessboard like her hand,  
The forks and gambits are well planned. 
Knight, rook or pawn - 
The battle’s on, 
All pieces snap at her command! 

She now sports a wrinkle or two, 
Yet fashion sense as good as new. 
By any means 
She struts her jeans 
In hippie style of fading blue! 

Poetry, her integral part, 
Her way with words is off the chart. 
Her sharp tongue works 
Through quips and quirks, 
That blows your mind and wins your heart! 

She claims she has no shades of grey, 
But once you dissect her wordplay, 
Her dark side shines 
In hidden lines,
Then LOL goes a long way!
