They call me odd
They call me odd at class and in town,
Yet seldom see me wear a frown.
Dancing in the field by day
atop my head a flower crown.
To be like them and join the fray
I’d kill my spirit, My life so gray.
So full of rancid and decay.
For mine shall be a grand bouquet.
For rather than film in black and white
I live my life a vibrant ballet
-Margot A. Bourque
