Spots and Dots

giraffes have spots
a frog does too
butterflies with dots
are eyeing you

my hands are spotted
like my nose used to be
completely polka dotted
they’re age spots you see

Thank you Nancy. I used to have freckles and I despised them until a boy said they were "cute". That changed it all.

Thank you Beata. I had a great birthday; I finished two paintings and started another one which I finished the next morning at 4 a.m. before I left for school. Our school does not get out until June 11th this year!
