Once upon a time

there was a girl

who liked to write…

teachers exclaimed

over her talent

some of them

were scared

by her stories

so for a while

she wrote only

“nice” stories

and readers

found them

tiresome…

one day she

stopped writing

anything

disappeared

in winds of

dolorous March…

if you chance to see

snippet of words

rush by, scattered

amid leaves Autumn

left behind

don’t give them

second thought

they may be mere

lost spirit

of story she forgot…
