Barrette

My daughter has a barrette

shaped like a flower.

Rainbow colored and wide,

this barrette is special.

This barrette is her robot.

A small female robot that hangs off a band around her ankle.

A small robot that flies and talks.

A small robot that she invented.

That carries her own story

of how life should be

of how life could be.

This barrette is special.
