When you glance at her
hastily in the grocery line
or anywhere for that matter
it may seem to you
that she doesn’t want
to look anyone in the eye
and is even less inclined
to invite anyone into her world.
Proud loner she is
arrogant in her high hair
you may judge her
solely based on the cover
never asking
whether that’s really her
and never questioning
your own urge to judge.
In all sincerity
truth to be told here
she is a free spirit
full of inner warmth
a true child of nature
caring and humble
a prism of light
in the heart of the universe.
You just need
to suspend your judgment
and go find her.
