| Plumeria rubra |
The oldest child. The eldest daughter in law. She always had things under control.
Every birthday party was meticulously planned. Every wedding went off without a hitch.
She helped pick out engagement rings. She knew where to hire a Spiderman costume.
Even for her own farewell party, she was the one who ordered the cake.
When they saw her, people relaxed. They knew nothing would now go wrong.
They depended on her. It was flattering, but sometimes she longed for more.
She tucked a plumeria behind her ears. Rolled down the window.
Long drives is where she could be She.
