The Girl

The girl is sweet and innocent. She is safe but dangerous. She can never decide what she wants. She is confident but not all the time. She wears a smile on her face. She can even wear a frown. She thinks too much. She has faith in people. She tells silly jokes. She isn’t afraid to conquer her fears. She loves polka dots. She cannot resist the smell of home baking. She holds the strength to withstand harsh words. She is ambitious.

Her behavior is timid yet wild. Her personality is both welcoming and caring. Her hair is long, wavy and light blonde. Her eyes are evergreen. Her stare is fierce and mesmerizing. Her choice of beverage is a chai tea latte with extra foam. Her future is full of promise. Her beauty shines from within her. Her sweet perfume lingers behind her as she walks. Her favorite color is red. Her presence in a crowded room is noticed. Her posture is graceful and elegant.

Who is this girl? Why, she is Maggie May Montgomery.

As the sun shines brilliantly into the valley and as the wind whispers silently through the maple leaf trees, Maggie sees not merely nature but a scene of pure and natural beauty. While sitting on the front porch her hair dances with the wind. The chill from the wind makes her turn to go inside and get a light sweater but instead a tiny blue bird stops her. The little creature hopes across her lawn and into the flower garden as its peeps a beautiful song. Amusing himself, the bird takes a skip and a hop and flies off into the deep blue sky. Amazed by the authenticity of such a fragile animal she stops once again before going inside her house to watch an amusingly large bee. Even though the bee is much to close for her liking she is curious about its behavior. Staring at the black and yellow buzzing about the yard she cannot help but notice that it is of much contrast to the bird. The bee is much more precise about its movements, and it looks more intimidating even with its tiny stature, where as the little bird looked calm and relaxed as if its only purpose was to stroll about and enjoy the nice weather.

With all of nature surrounding Maggie, she turns to go into the house through the sliding glass door and pauses. She pauses for one moment, takes a breath and wishes things were different.
