Book Report: Bound Feet and Western Dress

She's Emily Wakeling
who loves to move and dance,
She loves to talk one on one,
She loves to be daring and take a chance,
She loves to read and learning is fun,
She loves her sociological stuff,
Getting out in the community,
Not sitting on her duff,
She loves slippers and sweats
and rubber pants and fishnets,
She loves the nighttime,
Groovin' to honky-tonk G-funk rhymes,
She loves a good cup of gross diner coffee,
She loves snapdragons & blankets &
poetry & fireplaces & hugs & vanilla &
grilled cheese & sweat & first snow flakes &
photographs & driving & family outings &
loud clubs & pipe organs & tears & hour-long talks &
80's movies & pointe shoes & expressions on faces &
ammusement parks & reminiscing & cultures & women &
cream soda & purple & the muppets & napping &
the point where a laugh turns into a cackle &
when you put your nightshirt over the heater on a cold morning &
letters, the hand-written kind you recieve in the mail &
creative people & making connections

Her soul - passionate
Her mind - crazy and thoughtful
Her feet - ugly
Her heart - huge
Her love - unceasing
