Juno's Playbook


Aristocratic Brat

Lest she lose her porcelain-like complexion, once more Juno is adorned in her floppy hat,
Her springtime attire is befitting a debutante or Southern Belle, an aristocratic brat,
She dares not feel the effects of UV light, as she sashays into spring,
A freckle or two never hurt anyone; but to her, it’s a horrible thing,
She is conspicuously conspicuous; a statement is on her head,
Her nose is in the air; but her face will not turn red,
She is confident and carefree as she struts into a fresh season,
Her expression, however, never changes, for obviously obvious reason,
Don’t be offended by her demeanor; just let her have her fun,
She is merely “saving face” by hiding from the sun,
Her “better than you” attitude is really not becoming,
But her new look is fashion-forward and really is quite stunning,
Take a note from the Juno’s playbook; it truly is quite short,
If you want functionality AND fashion, the sun you mustn’t consort,
Sunscreen will work just as nicely as a glorious floppy hat,
But an outstanding hat may incite complimentary chitchat,
How divine, darling, to have a” head” for style,
Juno has all others beat, by a country mile,
It certainly is not a contest, but her humility is lacking,
Most importantly to her:  To save her “skin” from cracking!
