Alice



Alice

O Alice,
mischievous as ever with your long hazel locks.
Your red cheeks and mild lipstick are embedded within my dreams.

You look different today. Why are you not wearing your beloved pendant? Where is your good luck charm? Your happy ring is missing, too.

I notice something different about you. Perhaps you don't need them anymore. I can finally witness it for myself. O Alice, I'm glad to see you smile.
