Is She

Is she coming back?
The girl
With the scraped legs,
Bruised knees
And tanned skin?
The girl who can't play
A single sport
Yet breathes easy when climbing a mountain?
The girl who finds home
In trees?
She who chases birds
And runs with the pack?
Is she coming back?
Is she coming back to soak up the sun?
To have berry stained lips?
Is that her
Though her tanned skin is gone?
She has grown
But her lips are still chapped?
Is that her?
Has she retuned,
Out of shape?
Will she remember
Where she belongs?
