Best Friend

She has eyes that shine

and a heart that glows.

Her hands were created

to create.

She is a fern,

green and lively. 

She spreads her leaves 

out to the world.

She is laughter

and sunshine

and herbal tea

and roller skates.

Cassiopeia

Rotisserie Chicken

Boba Tea

Hip Hop

She is jazz music

on a Sunday afternoon.

She is strong like an oak,

but graceful as a weeping willow.

She is rooted

and continuously growing

toward the sky.

And I am grateful.
