Take It Lightly

Look down at her feet,
The size ?
Incorrect.
The shape ?
Too wide.
Her toes ?
Too long .
Stair at the top of her head,
Her hair ?
Wrong  texture,
Wrong length.
Her forehead ?
Too large.
Her eyebrows ?
Too bushy .
But follow it with a 
Chuckle,giggle,outburst of laughter 
Take it lightly .
As if the record 
You played in her mind hasn't been set on replay .
Wrong "This" and "Too" that .
Where does she find right ?
In between head to toe of "wrong" and"too" ?
No explanation required.
Just Take it lightly.
