there was
a
little girl
with
festive curls
infectious grin
dancing
eyes
once upon
a
time
once upon
a
time
she hugged her dolls
climbed the trees
read her books
tried to please
but
tried to please
but
changes
came
and mystified
she hid
she cried
her world
grew
dark
distorted
twisted
~
once
upon
a
a
time
there. was.

I grew up in a home
with
loving and supportive parents
not all little children are so fortunate
this is written for those little girls [and boys]
that haven't known a home
where there
is
love and nurture and encouragement

Laura Boggess

of
one such child
