Head first into the world,
a girl crowned blonde.
Precious and blinded by
pointed blades of light.
Years erase the blight.
Bloom of hair and limbs
ignite with youthful vigor,
ripening life so tender.
Time drags and adulthood
hangs high above her reach,
dim as a distant star.
Alive with dream and caution,
years fly and ideals blossom.
She gets to work and builds,
hope alone won't do,
a life to fit her best:
Not without passionately seeking
a helpmate to make it doubly blest.
