I was so young
that I tore pages from the book
and did my own drawings
but something in the colours
of the story
and the pages of the little girl’s life
all alone on the desert island
who had to draw creatures
in the sand
and they became her pets
the book was given by your friend, mama
and a woman has to fight
to find her own voice
and that sometimes
that might mean that she will
probably have to
be alone sometimes
and so she wrote little me
an inscription
to a new Eensame Maria
may she have headstrong road
and I did.
