Ode to My Curls

By Shoshana Castro-Root, TIWP Student

My hair is like the weather—
unpredictable and always changing. 
Sometimes soft and fluffy—
a cloud on a sunny day! 
Sometimes wild and chaotic—
a thunderstorm of curls.
Oh, and if I’m not careful, 
unruly strands will sneak into my mouth 
like spies on an enemy base!
Yes, I could tame my mane to behave how I want, 
but most of the time I let her run free.
