Unruly minor
3 February 2016
Winter’s main treasures
Granted to baby spring’s care
She melted all flakes
We wistful watched her
The celebrated cherub
Our eyes a heartache
Capital the crime
The juvenile detention
Only way for babe
I named her law year
Freshman a youth unvarnished
Chief of her defense
She was but infant
I depicted Dickens’ tales
Leading jury cried
Unruly minor
She suffered major mood swings
From tulips to skies
Guilty the kid charged
Was the dominant sentence
Juries hate the brat
My brilliant defense
Depicting the cub’s sorrow
Stood not her offense
The imp merely grinned
Beckoned to future offspring
She was a star child
Far from innocent
Principal appeal now lost
She mooned the judges
Reading of the poem:
Written for Ronovan writes Haiku challenge using Star, Child and their synonyms
