Never your typical girly girl
this one did her family proud
by eating spinach and only when
necessary, speaking loud
Always standing up for herself or others
either alone or in a crowd
At sports with the boys and fights from the start, she would win
Her son, husband and siblings too, on her they could count again and again
to fight a battle, be it over a molehill or a mountain
This vinegared, peppery, spitfire girl
This sweet faced, brown haired, dark eyed, smiling pearl
with one swift giggle, dash and a whirl
would steal your heart from it’s place in your world
But if you ever dared to hurt her family
you’d have discovered you’d made an enormous mistake
You’d have made a colossal, regretable error of calamity.
For this resolute girl of resilience, fortitude and conviction
Will break you down till you cry to your Uncle
She’ll take you to task over your dereliction
You’ll surrender into mere submission
Offer thoughts and words of sincere contrition
and never again bother her family, take back what you did, make everything right again
And when you’ve finished making your amends
Bid this not so typical brown eyed girl
a very humble, fond valediction.
