She juggled her life
Made it fit into the day
Until, she ran out
Felled by wasted distractions
She squandered her existence

Oh, hi there, I wasn’t expecting you
Please excuse me, if you don’t mind
I made my over here, for what, no clue
But, it’s something I hope I can find
Lately, I’m lost, don’t know what to do
I wonder if you’d help me, in kind
Find the thing, blocked from my view
Especially, if I try looking behind
I think I’ve gotten myself into a stew
If I don’t find it soon, I’ll be in a bind
What’s that you say, just buy it new?
Great idea, ah, at last, I can unwind…
…Now, what was it I was looking for?

Ethereal tears
Weep softly for the broken
Comfort saddened hearts

Mama always warned her girls
They best behave when on a date
But those two had a better idea
Words of wisdom, now too late
Once out the door, and in the car
They’d speed away, into the night
Find a place, they could change
Hit the scene, oh boy, what a sight
No longer were they demure ladies
So sweet, when they left the house
Now they were both quite deviant
One was even missing her blouse!
Come-hither eyes and lollipop grins
The guys were knocked off their feet
That is, until Bessy opened her mouth
Making most fellows, quickly, retreat
Not everything is as good as it looks
Better wait, before you praise and laud
The packaging may look great outside
But, sometimes, the product is flawed

Sunlight sparkles through the trees
Fairy dust flies, with mysteries
Released to the wind by her hand
Gisela lets them go, unplanned
Wanting to keep them for herself
She knew better, this little elf
Saying goodbye, she blew a kiss
With her one last final wish
May they return to her, some day
And bring the light, again, her way
