(no subject)
When I was a little girl I used to pretend to be a pirate
searching for lost treasure. With Pippi and Pumpkin and painted freckles
(I always secretly wished for a face full of them) on my cheeks.
And even now, now that my feet are planted (just a bit) firmer to where I stand,
there are days when I wish I could sail far far away from where I am.
