Should be called a four,
Unless she's wearing two tutus,
And then it's even more....

her baby rosy cheeks will seem two roses of a garden with a satin sheen....

Rotund rhinoceros, short chubby legs
Gingerly walks between old ostrich eggs
She is full of sass
As she makes a pass
Please get me a rainbow tutu, she begs....

searching for a tutu they could all agree on
no one appeared to notice their beauty

Dear advocate for freedom and peace
Your legacy and values will live on forever
In those whose hearts you touched and reached

in 1990's

Crashed her into the moon,
Crying, "I've made a terrible Bu Bu!"...

Usually quite macho but at times I wear a tutu
In my younger years, certain things got screwed
Didn't know which path
So I just took a bath
Sometimes it helps as we all come unglued...

Dainty flapper hippo gave us a wink and a twirl.
We saw her blue tutu spinning in an amazing swirl.
She is so delicate and pretty, and light on her feet!

painted red
ballerina pirouettes

metal ballerina
without
the tutu

Her pink tutu was especially made.
She danced from Colorado to an Everglade.
In 2020 asked to change her name.
Because of the pandemic virus named the same....

Ballerina faerie wore her white brightness well
Lurking in the basin of the forest, with sparkles that looked swell
Her tutu was angel-bright, glitzier

She is such a beauty, can you imagine
Her lovely mother?

Courageously walked in front as a guide
Will ever be honored as a brave knight
Here in this tomb lies, he, emanating light

Harry Heart had never wanted to be a jester at all.
To make the king happy, he had to reinvent himself that fall.
He had to be nasty and mean, a bully, making the court laugh.
He felt as out of place as a tutu ballet dancing lopsided giraffe....

She arrived at the garage sale 
wearing a feathered headdress 
She wore a rainbow tutu
Her tights matched her faerie wings

She said hello to all of us
Delighted with everything
We gave her more than she bought
Loving her enthusiastic thank yous...

A lizard in a leotard,
a leopard in a froufrou,
strolled off together, arm in arm,
in search of Desmond Tutu.
They stopped to drop some laundry off
while walking through Ukraine;
got waylaid when they picked it up,
were never seen again.
