The Snow Queen

The snow queen, white coat, white hair. Her daughter, black top, black jeans A wise queen an experienced mare Guides her naïve, know-it-all teen A diagnostic chart attached to her back Popular ailments; some fiction, some fact A talented rookie, her daughter has skill Her mother recognises, helps to fulfil The Snow queen not cold but strong Her daughter home-schooled, wronged Unusual scenario, a parent with brains Knows exactly when to tug on the reins An icy rouse hid the warmest heart. Mother’s guidance will play its part. David Cox 17/03/23

The last line pretty much sums it up, Dave. Read it twice to make sure I did not miss anything. Well written sonnet:) Have a great weekend.
