Pure mischief..
wrapped up in a lively, bright, extremely curious
seventeen year old
From day one rally gave me some major headaches
and also a lot of chuckles
Its taken some time.. and a lot of patience
but rally has settled down and become a dear friend
whose company I enjoy immensely

rally moved to the Netherlands with her parents
shortly before I met her,
which was a very big upheaval for her
in her final years of High School
Moving such a distance is traumatic enough
Studying and learning a new language
and missing the support of her friends
was just an additional burden
rally was unhappy and confused

She has now made some choices
and set some goals for herself
Resolved a few issues and taken steps
towards her future happiness.
I'm proud of you rally
and very happy to call you 'Friend'
May your future be as Bright
as Sunshine on Flowers
