She had much to learn
about the full moon
not just a shiny ball
hanging in a perfect place in the sky
like framed art in her window.
She had much to learn
about the stars,
names of constellations
their locations,
not just polka dots
on her favorite dress.
She had much to learn
about the journey
life would offer,
not just clicking her heels together
longing to discover a place.
She had much to learn
about who she wished
to see in the mirror
reflecting future dreams
to match her creative spirit.
