    Shy, but Not Too Shy
    A haiku for Luna Marie

    Precious, impish girl--
    Witty, charming, outgoing.
    Shy?  Not her good heart.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
