A Thank you Poem to my Royal Palm Sisters
By Sue-Ellen Sanders
Ahh- She holds up the turquoise blue gown to her shoulder
blades
Eyes reflecting delight before she even tries it on
Sequins twinkle in the light and she twirls around
Ready for prom.
Wow- Another girl clutches her regal purple silk as she
leaves the room
Remembering how it swept the floor
Like a queen approaching her throne
A single sequin and embroidered flower at the nipped waist.
Another prom gown free to her good home.
Long velvet garnet gown
Fits another teen
Like a glove and she beams at her reflection in the mirror
As her proud mother beams.
Palms
It was our pleasure to watch
All these girls play dress up
In prom dresses they could take home
And be queens and princesses for the night.
100 girls all with different shapes and in different colors
Each left Prom Towne with a dress of their own
