Swinging her body wildly
Enduring reality
Paints a blue picture
Framing pink horizons
Reckless, or steady?
Vulnerable, or tough?
Surviving a world that settles
For what she wouldn’t
Her legacy, though watered
Sustains my passion
Under the sun
End note: I don’t write poetry often but this came to me suddenly and I figured it would be appropriate for this to be my first post on this blog. It is inspired by Janis Joplin, whose nickname was Pearl.
