When I heard her name, it reminded me of this 90s movie. She is a Queen, but for the purposes of the poem, she is Princess Ocotillo. (Photo Credit Link)

This poem is for a woman I met recently. It was a joy connecting with her. I hope that the circumstances work out in your favor. Your children are lucky to have you as their mother.


Sometimes our bodies betray us. We say one thing, and our bodies reveal how we feel about ourselves

how we feel about others


The Princess asked

Despite being given writing prompts to

Draw out some of those insecurities

Her head betrayed her as she shook her head, 'no.'


Princess Ocotillo

What five things do you love about yourself? I implore you to write those letters to your children. Princess Ocotillo, please continue to be you. The world could use a little more of you.
