Why does Little Miss Muffet wear pants with ruffles?
“Mom,” I say. “You make me look crazy.”

Trick or treating in the dorms.
Is easy candy.

My costume is not ready. So I wear my orange and black sweater to the trick-or-treat fest downtown.
A lady looks at me and smiles.
“Are you a witch?” she asks.
I put my hands on my hips and glare at her.
No, I say.
And I thought only kids called each other names, I think to myself.
Cat woman

Mom shows me how to hold my long, princess skirt. Away from my toes. So I can climb up and down stairs.
I pinch my skirt with my long finger and thumb. My little finger sticks out.
I walk with grace. And do not fall.
I’m a lady, I say.
A hat thing

I want to wear purple tights.
And pink shoes.
But why did Mom have to pull out this hat “to tie it all together?”
The view from my window

Mom and Dad and I drive to a new town. To play.
It rains. And it is cold.
But when we get to our hotel room, the view from my window is bright.
I wear a coat outside.
I wear a swim suit inside.
I want to take this window home with me.
It is magic.
