She tickled toes and laughed
doing it
invented games involving
dice drapes the ice from drinks
various effigies and
handrolled handkerchiefs
Some say a feast hit town
others claimed she arrived
on a groovy comet
Nevertheless
she watered her plants
schooled her children, and never
never worked
both sides of the street
