There once was a girl named Kareen,
her home and family serene,
Then one day in April
The night stood quite still
And a star fell and shook her feet.
Her parents went out to the fog
To search for the lights in the bog
But to her dismay,
There they remained,
And another would come in their stead
She hid under her bed for days
And soon time became a haze
Then one day she knew
And the shape would too
As she would shape it to match her face
-Taja Emmaus
