The subtle changes in her at 16 were to enchant later in life as she grew more beautiful


Tomboy Metamorphosis by M.A.Meddings

Tomboy blossoming  at 16 
You could see how beautiful 
She would be a teenage queen 
And how in her tee shirt and jeans 
Toughing it out amongst boys it seems 
Her gentleness began to show 
Well I guess you all know
How girls blossom right about then 
Subtle changes at the hips 
And an enchanting effected pout to her lips 
Especially when she discovered lipstick 
Big sister coaching on how to apply 
And as she finds out, well oh boy 
Does she look different ?
An emerging  butterfly 
From  the crysalis of  puberty 
An enchanting  change 
To win the heart of me 
At  times they call it metamorphosis 
But I have a different  name 
Freckle faced tomboy 
Has become a woman

This is truly endearing. She went from playing high school football to going to proms with her hair all piled high on her head, looking tall and regal. But she has never let go of that impish smile, with the glinting eyes that tell you, watchout, I might be up to someting!
